ROSES FOR FALL PLANTING 



Experienced professional growers as well as amateurs who have had experience, are turning more and more each season with greater 

 favor towards fall planting, and we strongly recommend this where careful attention can be given to the simple methods of winter pro- 

 tection recommended in our cultural leaflet which is mailed free on application. We are now booking orders for strong two-year-old 

 field-grown dormant plants of the varieties listed on this and the following pages, delivery of which will be made as soon as the plants 

 are properly ripened, usually late in October or early November. 



One of the advantages of getting Roses in a dormant condition is that the plants take up very little room and can be shipped to 

 almost any distance without fear of loss, and at a minimum of cost. These dormant plants can readily be sent by Parcel Post. We will 

 be pleased to deliver prepaid to destination any of the Roses offered if remittance is made in accordance with note on order blank and 

 inside of front cover of this catalogue to cover special packing and Parcel Post charges. 



Cultiiral leaflet giving concise instructions on the planting, care, pruning and protection of Roses will be mailed free on application.
