Well Chosen-Dependable 
No. 1 GRADE 2 YEAR OLD ROSE BUSHES—READY TO BLOOM • 
Rose Bushes are graded according to rigid specifications set by the Nurserymen's Associa¬ 
tion of America. Note, at right, typical No. 1 grade—well developed, deep seeking root, 
thick heavy crown, well formed, symmetrical top—all essentials to proper growth. Compare 
this with the No. 1^ grade, which many nurseries send out as “No. 1.” We supply only No. 1 
Grade bushes except in our bargain collections. This careful grading is your best assur¬ 
ance of the success of the Rose bushes you buy from Wards.
