ROSE GARDEN Aft 
Hundreds of thousands of visitors to the World’s Fair, Chicago, 
1933, saw our beautiful rose garden and many told us that it 
was the most beautiful display in the entire World’s Fair. They 
could not believe that those thousands of blooming roses (over 
6000 roses, 104 varieties) had been planted in April, 1933. 
These 7 roses were the varieties selected by the visitors as being 
the best and they certainly made a good selection. Without 
question each one is the leader in its color. They are ROYAL 
ROSES worthy of a place in every garden and at our special low 
price, every rose lover can have them. Every one of them is an 
especially free bloomer, blooming practically all summer until 
frost in the fall. Every one is hardy, a thrifty vigorous grower. 
Remember they will bloom THIS SUMMER AND FALL. They 
are the finest out of our entire collection of roses.
