IN SELECTING ROSES 
the most important requisites are 
Hardness of Wood is first in importance as this 
prevents your roses from dying back when 
planted out. Our dormant field-grown roses are 
hard grown and absolutely will not die back 
from this cause. 
Budded Upon the Proper Stock. Our Los Angeles 
and yellow roses and the moderate growers 
amongst the Hybrid Teas are budded upon Rosa- 
maine stocks that will not sucker nor shrivel, 
(together a great acquisition) American Roses 
grown on this stock received the Premier Award 
the Blue Ribbon of the Rose World at tlie Inter¬ 
national Rose Show held in Paris in 1919 and 
1921. We submit therefore that the superiority 
of this stock as a budding medium must be con¬ 
ceded. 
As to Size. Our Hybrid Teas are over 24 inches in 
height with heavy canes that will give immediate results, 
in Variety. We catalog only such varieties that have 
shown sterling merit and that are an advance on exist¬ 
ing sorts. They are fully described in our illustrated 
catalog which is sent free upon request.
