\/£ Delicately nurtured roses, 
propagated in hot green- 
houses, are not suitable for 
planting out-of-doors. Even it 
they do not die at the first touch of 
frost it will take them years to get 
acclimated so that they will bloom 
freely. What you want for your rose 
garden is plants that have been grown 
under conditions similar to what you 
can offer them. 
Fairfax Roses 
are propagated under natural conditions and 
wintered out-of-doors. They are hardy and 
vigorous, immune to frost and snow, 
and should thrive in YOUR garden as 
well as they do in ours. They will 
bloom luxuriantly the FIRST season 
— rich, rare blooms full of color and per- 
fume— without special care or nursing.

WALSH’S HARDY ROSES 
Two year old — low budded dormant field-grown stock 
My roses have a reputation for giving best results and have 
won many gold and silver medals in past years. They are far 
superior to pot grown roses which are usually grafted and are 
seldom over three or four months old. 
Send for my catalogue which not only describes a most complete 
collection of the best varieties for the garden, but also gives 
cultural directions for obtaining the best results in rose growing. 
Which won the 
GOLD MEDAL 
at the Florists’ Conven- 
tion held in Boston last 
summer. 
The “EXCELSA” is the 
finest and brightest red 
climbing rose grown and is 
entirely free from the pur- 
plish tint which develops 
in the ordinary Crimson 
Rambler. Does not be- 
come unsightly in August.
