 Dozen, one of each variety 'P"*^'' 



Every year more and more gardeners are turning to fall planting 

 of Roses, as if properly protected by a mound of soil covering at 

 least three eyes on every branch the plants will go through even 

 severe winter weather. This method of protection is fully explained 

 in our cultural leallet "Fall Planting of Roses" sent free upon 

 request. We are now booking orders for strong 2-year-old field- 

 grown dormant plants of the varieties listed on these pages. Deliv- 

 ery will be made as soon as the plants are properly ripened, usually 

 in late October and early November.

The Perfumed Rose

 perfect in every stage of development. Out of the long, pointed

 describes their intense fragrance most appropriately. They have 

 the glorious permeating odor of the old garden Roses of SO years 

 ago. 



Mrs. J. D. Eisele produces its blooms most abundantly in a 

 continuous procession even during the warm summer weather. The 

 flowers are of magnificent size — from 5 to 6 inches across. They
