Own-Root Roses for Fall Planting 
Where the winters are not too 
severe, the fall planting of Roses con¬ 
tinues to grow in popularity, especially 
with those who have tried our Field- 
grown Potted Stock. These plants we 
have thoroughly prepared for shipping 
and planting at any time and the 
sooner you send the better. 
Order as early as possible (today); 
plant promptly on arrival; let the roots 
get well established this fall. Before 
the ground freezes hard, mound up the 
soil 6 inches high, thus protecting each 
plant for the winter. In the spring 
remove the covering gradually when 
danger from frost is past,—then will 
come your surprise and pleasure. The 
new growth and abundant bloom will 
be far in excess of that from plants set 
out next spring; so, if you live in a 
mild climate, begin your next year’s 
Rose-beds now, and begin with these 
specially prepared Roses.
