Rose Gardens 
We devote special attention to designing, 
laying out and planting Rose gardens, advising 
our patrons of the hardiest and most desirable 
varieties to use. Our years of experience 
among Roses enables us to do this with a 
degree of success that has been eminently 
satisfactory to our patrons. This is constantly 
evidenced by the enormous demand year after 
year for our Roses. While our collection is 
now very extensive, our constant aim has been 
to amass only such varieties as have proved 
worthy and will justify our recommendation. 
When the selection is left to us, we can supply 
a collection of Roses that will give you flowers 
and pleasure the entire season. We furnish 
to order designs for Rose gardens of any 
dimensions.

Hybrid Perpetuals 
The list here offered comprises a general 
assortment of this ever-popular class of hardy 
Roses. The varieties listed cover all the desir¬ 
able and distinct shades, and are superior in 
size, hardiness, vigor, and productiveness. As 
far as possible, varieties are on their own roots, 
but it is necessary to bud some kinds on other 
stock. In planting budded stock, great care 
should be taken to have the “bud’’ at least 2 
inches below the surface, so the stock will not 
“sucker up.”
