New, Patented Hybrid Tea Rose 
A YEAR ago, we announced the new, patented 
Hybrid Tea Rose, the Governor Alfred E. 
Smith. This Spring, we have thousands of fine, field- 
grown plants of this promising variety. 
The blooms present a new color combination of 
old gold, salmon, apricot and coral, with coral pre¬ 
dominating. The flowers are fragrant, giving off a 
delightful though not heavy perfume. The plant 
is vigorous, upright and hardy, sending up large 
blooms in quick succession. 
2-Year Field-Grown Plant, $2 
We are the sole distributors of the Gov. Alfred E. 
Smith Rose; it cannot be obtained elsewhere. We 
offer this new lovely patent-protected rose at $2

Also, with any order for Roses, amounting to $5 
or more selected from this Catalog, we will include 
on request one Gov. Alfred E. Smith Rose, free, 
Only one free to a customer.
