BORDER OF HYBRID PERPETUAL ROSES IN VEGETABLE GARDEN 
Roses for Spring Planting 
Dormant Hardy Roses can be supplied from October 20 to April 1. Tea Roses all the year. 
The fall is a much better time for planting Hardy Roses than the spring, and better plants and a better assortment of varieties can be 
obtained in the fall. In fact, we have always found it impossible to obtain a good assortment of Roses on their own roots in the spring, and 
we are loath to handle any other kind. 
Afteralongexperience 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 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 fine quality —there is nothing finer to be obtained at any price. Dor¬ 
mant 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. A few varieties like Baroness Rothschild, 
Mabel Morrison and Captain Christy are never grown on their own roots, but the plants we furnish are American grown.
