ROSES 
Roses can be grown as well in Montana 
as elsewhere, it's simply a case of Winter protection, 
and when this is properly done success is assured. 
This season we wish to call particular attention to 
the three varieties pictured on the front cover of this 
book. The Hoosier Beauty, Ophelia and Aaron Ward.

Ophelia 
Salmon, shaded with rose, large 
and of perfect shape, the flowers are 
freely produced on long stems, a 
vigorous grower. 
Hoosier Beauty 
While this rose was only intro- 
duced the past season we believe it 
to be of exceptional merit and were 
one of first firms of the country to 
grow it. Color glowing crimson 
scarlet with darker shading, the bud 
opens into magnificent bloom, quite 
dazzling in velvety brilliance. 
Mrs. Aaron Ward 
The habit of this rose is one of the 
handsomest in the entire rose family, 
a profusion of bronze green, long 
pointed foliage, carried quite up to 
the flower. The color of the bloom 
is Indian yellow, which lightens, as 
the rose opens, to a soft fawn color. 
It is a rose distinct in every respect. 
Price each 25c and 50c 
The Set of 3 60c and $1.25 
We can also offer the Aaron 2- 
year at $1.00 each.
