Dear Sirs: 
I had occasion last March to 
purchase a number of plants from 
Eastern growers including your 
firm. The plants ordered from 
you reached me in perfect condi¬ 
tion and I wish to congratulate 
you on the excellent judgment of 
the one who packed the plants. 
Every plant has grown and been 
strong and healthy. 1 have lost 
a great many plants of those re¬ 
ceived from other firms.

Gentlemen: 
I have had experience with 
many varieties of roses from va¬ 
rious growers, but I have found 
none which have given such strong 
thrifty growth and good blooms 
as the Hybrid Teas which I 
ordered from your company last 
spring.

This durable Star 
Tag tells the name of 
the growing rose, in 
your garden, and is 
the constant evidence 
of our guarantee. 
T HERE are few things in life that can bring to you more 
joy and inspiration than roses in your ozvn garden. And 
in nothing else that you purchase is there greater differ¬ 
ence in quality than in rose stock. 
It takes infinite pains in many processes to send to your door 
plants that have the full measure of strength and vitality so 
necessary for vigorous growth and beautiful blooms. 
You can buy rose plants of uncertain variety that will leave 
you wondering all summer why your blooms are so disappoint¬ 
ing. You can buy roses that have been poorly grown or care¬ 
lessly dug and shipped—with tops shrivelled and vitality gone 
long before they reach you. 
In other words, you can buy “just roses,” or you can buy 
Conard Star Roses, recognized among rose lovers everywhere 
as the highest quality in rose stock. 
This quality is due to our extreme care in selection—a constant sifting of 
the fit from the unfit in order to grow roses that we can guarantee as no 
other roses in America are guaranteed. 
As lasting evidence of this guarantee, we attach to each Conard Star 
plant a durable white star tag that bears our name and the name of the 
rose. This tiny label, nestling among the leaves is a constant convenience 
to thousands of our customers in telling the different varieties in their 
gardens. 
Take the guesswork out of your rose growing by having perfect plants to 
start with. Conard Roses cost no more than ordinary good roses and we 
guarantee them to bloom or repay you for any that fad.
