DOORYARD ROSES 
An enthusiastic welcome has been accorded the new Dooryard 
Roses, unique 1937 introductions that combine beauty with hardiness 
(arcticness). Blossoming almost continuously, with pretty pink blooms 
the size of a Hybrid Tea, the Dooryard Roses grow sturdily to a 
height of about 2 feet and spread out on the order of a Pfitzer juniper. 
Their stems make them excellent for cutting and their fragrant blos¬ 
soms last well. The Dooryard Roses are a new type of Rose especially 
resistant to cold, mildew, and black-spot. 
Mrs. Frank Stearns. Named by delegates to the annual meeting 
of the National Council of State Garden Clubs. A lovely shade 
of pink. $2.00 each. 
Dooryard Delight. Another Dooryard Rose, hardy and very 
disease-resistant. The bushes are lower growing than the above and 
the foliage is especially deep green. $2.00 each. 
Plant Wyant Roses This Fall 
THE BEST TIME TO PLANT IS IN THE FALL AND THE BEST ROSES TO PLANT 
ARE WYANT ROSES 
Roses planted in the fall start growth at the 
normal time in the spring and will give you better 
results the first year than those planted in the 
spring can possibly do. 
Carefully studied reports from thousands of 
our customers establish October 20 to November 
20 as the best time to plant Wyant Roses in this 
latitude. The soil and weather conditions are 
much more favorable then and, if the simple 
planting instructions enclosed with each order are 
followed, there is very little danger of winter 
losses. 
Fall planting brings you the pick of the crop; 
the plants are freshly dug, and you are sure of 
getting the variety you want. 
If you have planted Wyant Roses you know 
the quality; if you are not a customer, a trial 
order will convince you that there are no better 
Roses grown than those produced here in our 
Mentor Nursery. 
We grow Roses not only to make a living but 
because we love them, and all of our energy is 
expended in growing the best plants of the best 
varieties we can find. 
The rugged Mentor climate takes care of all the 
weaklings, so that we cannot afford to grow any¬ 
thing but the best. 
Through contracts with the introducers we 
now grow many of the patented varieties our¬ 
selves, so you are assured of quality plants of 
these as well as of the unpatented varieties. 
We bud on both seedlings and cuttings, both 
types producing fine, branched, well-formed root 
systems. 
Order now for fall planting. Price-list is 
enclosed.
