ROSES 
It is generally conceded that we grow the best rose plants on the Pacific Coast, which is 
equivalent to saying that they are not equaled elsewhere. 
All plants offered, with the exception of a few of the very latest varieties, are two years old 
and practically all are budded. In all cases they have been grown from the start in the open 
ground, so are strong and vigorous. With any reasonable care they should bloom freely the first 
season. 
Descriptions are greatly condensed. For more complete details, see our Descriptive Catalog.
