ROSES 
In making up our list of roses for our 1935 trade, we 
have endeavored to keep many of those listed in our 1934 
catalog as we believe that the collection offered by us last 
year was really the cream of the popular-priced roses 
with which we are familiar. We are, however, adding a 
few of the latest introductions which we believe have 
merit and which we know will give the utmost satisfac¬ 
tion. 
A light clay soil is the best for roses, but they will 
grow well in any good garden soil. For profusion of 
bloom they should be well fertilized and given plenty of 
water during the dry summer. In the fall hill up the earth 
and cover with mulch after the ground is frozen, and in 
the spring prune back to within eight or ten buds. All 
budded roses should be planted so that the union indi¬ 
cated by a crook in the stem is below the ground. 
Dormant roses should be well watered and the tops cut 
back to about six inches in height and protected from 
the sun until the buds show growth, for the failure of 
most roses to live is due to a lack of moisture. 
If possible, please give second choice of a variety as, 
unless advised to the contrary, whenever our stock of a 
variety is exhausted, we will make a substitution as near 
to color and habit as possible. 
Prices on roses are for dormant plants which we can 
furnish until about May 1st. After that time we can 
supply potted plants for June blooming. These will be at 
an increase of 15 cents per plant. 
HYBRID TEA OR EVER-BLOOMING ROSES 
These will give an abundance of bloom from June until 
frost. They should be liberally fertilized every year and 
given some protection from the sun and frost during the 
winter.
