Among the many fine Dahlias we are offering for 1924, we recommend this beau¬ 
tiful Hybrid Cactus. Color is a rich mallow pink on outside, shading to almost 
pure white at the center. The form is unusually attractive. Francis Lobdell 
makes a multi-flowered attractive bush and is one of the finest of all garden grow¬ 
ers. Can be used effectively in beds or borders. Tubers $10.00; Plants $5.00.

(T) OSEDALE ROSES have been successfully planted 
X\ throughout the Eastern States, including New 
England. No hardier Roses of the same varie¬ 
ties can be found anywhere. 
We ship only strong field-grown plants grown on hardy 
Japanese Multiflora stock. We do not handle pot-grown 
Roses, as we have found the field-grown plants hardier 
and stronger in every way. 
Our plants are kept perfectly dormant from the time 
they are dug until they reach our customers. This per¬ 
mits you to set them out early and get the benefit of a 
full season’s growth. We will ship your order as soon as 
the weather will permit planting in your section. 
Our catalogue enables you to select from a large num¬ 
ber of choice varieties—(Hybrid Tea Roses, Hybrid Per- 
petuals, Hardy Rugosas and Climbing Roses.

What Rose 
Lovers Say 
(Names furnished on request) 
We unpacked and planted the Rose 
Bushes Saturday last, three days after 
they arrived. We found them not only 
in fine condition but well “cut back,” 
leaving nothing to do but proper plant- 
ing and after care.—New York. 
The Dr. Van Fleet Rose purchased 
from you in the Spring of 1922 is doing 
splendidly. It went through the first 
winter without injury, although it was 
entirely unprotected. Last summer, it 
was ablaze with big blooms. We like 
them for cutting because of their long 
stems. Friends tell us we will have to 
enlarge our trellis to take care of the 
new growth.—Long Island. 
I shall want a few more Roses this 
year, and yours are the best I have 
been able to get.—Massachusetts. 
The Roses shipped by you April 20th reached me April 27th in splendid condition, 
and were in every way satisfactory. Idaho. 
Your shipment of Roses to us was so satisfactory, we wish to order more.—Illinois. 
Rosedale Evergreens 
77 Varieties—Sizes up to 25 ft. 
Rosedale Nurseries are noted as the Eastern home of the 
magnificent Douglas Fir—the majestic king of the Rockies. 
We have the greatest stock of finished specimen trees of this 
variety to be found. They are beautiful Frees from ten to 
twenty feet high, ready to give immediate effect. We have 
hundreds of them ready for shipment. 
All our Evergreens, Shade Trees and large-size Fruit Trees 
have been frequently transplanted in order to promote a heavy 
growth of fibrous roots close to the trunks. For this reason, 
they soon establish themselves in their new homes, scarcely 
pausing in their growth. 
The Rosedale Catalogue will give you much helpful informa¬ 
tion. Your name and address on a postal will bring it. Write 
to-day. 
You are cordially invited to visit our booth at the Flower 
Show, Grand Central Palace, New York, March 17-22.
