N owhere else can 
you buy plants that 
take the guess-work out of 
rose growing — absolutely. 
For on every Conard Star 
Rose, you get our Star Tag 
Guarantee. This not only 
means your money back if 
the rose doesn’t bloom, but 
it also retains for you the 
name of the rose on a per¬ 
manent celluloid tag which 
you leave on the plant. 
It’s not the guarantee which 
makes our roses bloom, but the 
quality of our plants, which 
enables us to make the guaran¬ 
tee—hardy, field-grown plants, 
raised by famous rose specialists. 
Our little book, “ Success with 
Roses,” is worth dollars. Price to

logue of over 200 varieties, free 
on request.

A Garden of Sweet Perfumes 
Hemerocallis flava “so fragrant 
that it has earned the name Yellow 
Tuberose.” 
William Robinson 
In “The English Flower-Garden.” 
“Meadow Sweet” and “Gas” plant 
(Dictamnus fraxinella) a favorite 
in old, old gardens, where for gen¬ 
erations it has endured, giving off 
a sweet “Balsamic” scent, very 
noticeable at evening time. 
“A man who makes a garden 
should have a heart for plants 
that have the gift of sweetness 
as well as beauty of form or 
color.” 
William Robinson 
"The English Flower Garden.” 
It is strange that one 
who loves a garden should 
forget such a creation. 
In response to many in¬ 
quiries, we have assembled a 
few flowers sweet to smell. 
They are all old favorites 
which give freely of their 
perfume, suggesting beautiful 
thoughts of far-away days, 
things sweeter than words 
may tell. 
English Primroses, Lily of the 
Valley and ‘‘Sweet Cicely” 
(Myrrhis odorata) with beautiful 
pale green fem-like leaves and fine 
white flowers, delightful for cut¬ 
ting. 
Sweet scented Florentina Iris and 
old “Sweet Rocket” (Hesperis ma- 
tronalis). 
Clove Pinks and Sweet William, 
“Garden Heliotrope” and fragrant 
Day Lily (Hemerocallis flava). 
Scarlet “Bee Balm”, the joy of 
humming birds.
