HENDERSON'S u 
SPECIAL 
The wonderful 
colorings and 
blendings we _ 
have in our mod¬ 
ern Roses were certainly 
never dreamed of years ago. 
With the introduction of many 
new varieties each year the 
popularity of this flower is steadily 
increasing and much inteiest is being 
taken in the planting of Rose beds. 
To further stimulate this interest we 
have thought it well this season to call 
attention to the satisfactory results that 
can be obtained by planting young 
Roses in the spring. We offer on this 
page a selected list of varieties, young 
plants from 3 inch pots. The E verbloom¬ 
ing sorts in Collection A should bloom 
freely this summer and make strong 
plants for next'year. The Hybrid Perpetuals 
and Hardy Climbers should flower the follow¬ 
ing year. Our booklet “The Garden Cul¬ 
ture of the Rose,” which gives full detailed 
Instructions on planting and care will be 
■lent free if asked for when ordering.
