DREER'S GARDEN 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, but only, 

 where careful attention can be given to the simple methods of winter protection recommended in our 

 cultural leaflet which we mail 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. 



The "Dreer Dozen" 



Hardy Everblooming Hybrid-Tea Roses 



For many years it has been customary for us to offer under this heading only the best and most popular varieties of Hybrid-Tea 

 Roses. The collection offered this season has been carefully revised and the selection has been based on careful observations made in our 

 own trials and in various parts of the country as well as from favorable reports received from satisfied customers. 



We recommend this collection for general planting to the amateur who wishes a limited number of varieties, and who is desirous 

 of a supply of extra choice flowers to cut throughout the season. Those who desire a more extensive collection can select with perfect 

 confidence any variety in our collection of Hybrid-Tea Roses. There is not one individual sort which we cannot endorse as possessing 

 superior merit, all having been thoroughly tested.
