THE DIMGEE <§c CONARD COMPANY'S 



Hardy Hybrid Perpetual Roses. 



••••STANDARD LIST OF BEST VARIETIES^^^* 



T is not necessary to give detailed descriptions of the varieties offered on this page. The list 

 comprises the very choicest sorts in cultivation. During the past quarter of a century we have 

 tested nearly all of the Hardy Hybrid Roses in existence, and have kept only those of pro- 

 nounced merit, such as will give the best satisfaction to home planters. We have discarded 

 those of inferior merit and retain only the best as regards healthy, vigorous growth, freedom of 

 bloom, form and color of flower. These varieties are perfectly hardy, and will stand the severest 

 Winters. 



We grow our hardy Roses from hard-wood cuttings, taken from strong healthy plants, hence 

 they have more vigor and vitality and health than plants grown from soft-wooded cuttings, taken 

 from forced greenhouse-grown plants. The j^oung plants are grown in 2>^ and 3-inch pots, and 

 when sent out are in perfect growing condition. Our two-year-old plants have been grown in 

 nature's own way, and are far superior to ordinary two-year-old plants that are usually sent out. 

 Our prices, considering the work put on our Roses, are marvels of cheapness. In the quality of our 

 stock we have no competition.
