S&H Hardy Field*6rown Roses 
■ S. & H. 2-yr. Field-grown Roses have an 80-yr. international reputation 
for character and virility; a reputation strictly maintained despite dis¬ 
asters, depressions, price-panics and every other economic disturbance. 
In comparing prices, all we ask of you is to give quality and grade, 
true value. 
The classes and varieties we list are all hardy, with winter protection. 
As a popular service, we cut back and root-prune your Roses,—ready 
to plant. 
Before plantingf, consider these simple instructions : Sunny loca¬ 
tion protected from boisterous, cold north winds. The soil should be clean 
and mellow ; containing some clay for body and some gravel or peat for 
porosity, with thoroughly worked-in fertilizer—well rotted manure being 
the best. Dig the holes deep and big enough so that the roots may be 
naturally spread out, resting upon and enveloped by a generous amount 
of the prepared soil filler. Make sure all the fibrous roots are firmly packed 
into their new home, by sifting and tamping. Do not mound the surface, 
as that would divert rainfall and applied moisture. Be particular to soak 
the fresh planting, and never allow it to dry out, or the soil to cake. 
“Everblooming” Roses require about 18 inches planting space; June 
Roses, about 2 feet. The climbers need some kind of trellis support. The 
Rugosas, Hugonis and Native types are used just the same as shrubs; 
the Baby Ramblers in massed beds, or as borders and for low hedges.
