SPLENDID SETS FOR THE NORTH 
We realize that great numbers of people who live in the northern states think that they cannot 
grow Roses on account of the severe winters; but Roses can be grown in any climate, provided 
the right kinds are planted, and we have listed below sturdy, vigorous kinds, most of them 
deliciously fragrant and all of them free bloomers when they become established. 
These Need No Protection 
The Roses in the following sets are so hardy that protection is not 
necessary, even in the coldest climates. However, if convenient to 
do so, we suggest that you hill the earth around the stems of the 
plants, before frost, to a height of 6 or 8 inches and cover this with 
leaves or strawy manure. Any protection given the plants will 
benefit them and enable them to give better results next season.

Gentlemen :—The Roses ordered last year were much more beautiful than any I 
have ever seen in any garden. -I do not know which was the most beautiful; even 
the little one-year plants were covered with perfect Roses. They were a constant 
delight all summer, and in bloom until after cold weather. They arrived in the 
best of condition.—Dean D. D., St. Paul, Minn. No. 5824

Gentlemen I have received the Roses, but the card went astray and the Roses 
were at the Customs Office a week, but I am well satisfied with them. When 1 
went to the Customs Office, the gentleman told me my goods had been there a 
week. I said they would likely be dried up, but he said not, for Conard & Jones 
is one of the best places we receive goods from, well packed and fine stock.
