Paul J. Howard’s Established Roses 
Careful buyers know that Paul J. Howard’s extra strong Rose 
Bushes produce more vigorous growth and a greater profusion of 
finer flowers. 
We have selected from our fields only the heaviest, strongest 
two-year-old plants, budded on special root-stocks which form vigor¬ 
ous branching root systems supplying extra strength to the well de¬ 
veloped tops. 
For planting throughout the year, and when dormant plants are 
not available, these superior bushes, too large to put in the common¬ 
ly used gallon cans, we have planted in large containers with especial¬ 
ly prepared soil to bring to your garden the best roses obtainable. 
These larger bushes may be selected in full bloom. From them 
you may gather flowers for your table immediately, and throughout 
the season. 
Notwithstanding the greater expense of producing these far 
superior roses, their price is scarcely more than you would pay for 
ordinary bushes.
