BETTER TIMES 
The Jos. H. Hill Co. 
Plant Patent No. 23, August 23, 1932 
“A cerise pink sport of Briarcliff found on The Joseph H. Hill Company range in 
January, 1931. It is thought so well of that nearly one hundred thousand were planted 
here last spring.the fact that it is such an easy doer and is so resistant to the 
common diseases, we predict that Better Times will replace all dark pink varieties now 
being grown.” From our 1934 catalog. 
“One of the finest tributes to Better Times is that no adverse criticism has 
been heard from growers or retailers who have handled it. It is our policy 
now and will be for some time to come to maintain a higher purchasing 
price for this rose than for more standard varieties and to protect the pur¬ 
chasers of this rose to the best of our ability.” From our 1935 catalog. 
Better Times is now established. The variety has proved to be 
all that was ever said of it. If you have not yet planted it, plan 
to this spring; if you have some growing, it has surely convinced 
you that you need more. 
BETTER TIMES MARCHES ON!
