VESTAL Quality ROSES 
GOLDEN DAWN 
V ESTAL’S Arkansas-grown Rose plants are the finest that Nature, aided by scientific skill, 
can possibly produce. If you have never planted Vestal Roses, look through this booklet and 
give us a trial order. 
For the proverbial life-span of three score years and ten, Jos. W. Vestal & Son has been busy 
growing plants for American gardens—seventy years of creating and testing new things, and, by 
everlasting watchfulness and rigid selection, improving the old favorites. Some of the finest Roses 
grown today are Vestal introductions, offered only after we have grown them and found them good. 
This has been a labor of love, for we love plants and have enjoyed every minute devoted to this 
work; also, like most honest businesses, the House of Vestal has prospered, has grown from an idea 
and the will to do, to the largest retail nursery in the State. 
Look over our list of Roses; you will find only good varieties, the best of the old ones and only 
the novelties which we have tried and found worthy. 
The quality of our plants is the highest; our prices are low—as low as we can make them and still 
have a small profit for ourselves. We do not ask a large profit on any of our plants. With the in¬ 
creasing volume of orders from all over the United States, we are able to ship the finest plants at the 
lowest prices consistent with any kind of quality. 
We know that our stock is grown right and handled right after it is dug, enabling us to deliver su¬ 
perior plants which are bringing many favorable reports from satisfied customers, not only in the South 
but from all parts of the United States. Vestal Roses will thrive anywhere that Roses can be grown. 
We believe that the reason Roses have not been more generally grown in the South is that 
gardeners were not getting good plants suited to their conditions. If you are having trouble with 
Roses, tell us about it; we shall be glad to advise you. 
We shall be happy to have you visit our greenhouses and nurseries any time you are passing 
through Little Rock. If your visit can be made during Rose blooming-time, you can spend a very 
enjoyable afternoon or evening looking over our Rose-fields and trial grounds. 
» » » THE VESTAL GUARANTEE « « « 
We guarantee to the full amount of the purchase price, the purity and quality of all Vestal Seeds, 
Bulbs, Roots, and Plants ordered from this book; and we also guarantee to the full amount of the purchase 
price, the safe delivery of everything you order. 
We do not guarantee continued growth. At our prices it is impossible for us to guarantee growth or to 
be responsible for stock after delivery to our customers in good condition. So many factors over which 
we have no control, govern the life and growth of plants, after they leave our custody, that we do not feel 
that we should be held responsible for their growth. JOS. W. VESTAL & SON.
