Roses for Spring Planting 
Dormant Hardy Hoses can be supplied from October 20 to April 20. Tea Roses all the year. It is important that Roses should be 
planted as early in the spring as possible. 
After a long experience with Roses, we have concluded that the imported budded Roses are comparatively worthless for general planting, 
and we have decided, with the exception of a few varieties, such as Baroness Rothschild, Mabel Morrison, Capt. Christy, etc., which can be 
obtained only in budded plants, to handle nothing but American-grown Roses on their own roots. The Roses we handle are of exceptionally 
tine quality — there is nothing finer to be obtained at any price. Dormant Hardy Roses should be planted in the fall, or very early in the 
spring, and when planted fully two-thirds of the tops should be cut off. This is imperative. Protect beds during the winter with three or 
four inches of stable manure. 
Roses grown on their own roots do not make as large plants in the nursery as budded plants, but their superiority is unquestioned. We 
could furnish imported budded plants at half the prices quoted below’ and make a good profit. We handle nothing but American-grow r n 
Roses, w'hether budded or on their ow r n roots.
