Why Th ese Ro ses Are Superior . 
IMPORTANT 
T he photograph below shows the 
roses blooming in the nursery a 
few weeks before digging time. All of 
the plants were regularly sprayed and 
pruned: they are now mature, hardy 
specimens ready to bloom again shortly 
after transplanting. 
The photograph at the left shows how 
our specimen plants differ from those 
often sold at “bargain” prices. 
(A) A discarded hothouse rose bush. 
This plant has been FORCED 
for several years to produce roses 
for the Florist Shops. It is now 
prematurely aged and, therefore, 
the grower discards it to make 
room for a younger plant. 
(B) The mature field-grown rose 
plant, budded on that finest of 
root systems, Multiflora Japonica. 
This rose is hardy because it was 
grown out-of-doors under severe 
climatic conditions, having with¬ 
stood severe winter weather. 
This type of plant is in every re¬ 
spect the hardiest and best for 
garden planting. 
(C) The immature field-grown rose 
plant. This type of plant lacks 
the size and vigor of the mature 
specimen, it is the so-called “bar¬ 
gain” field-grown rose. This type 
has not the stamina or hardihood 
of specimen “B” as it has not 
been subjected to the severe 
hardening effect of winter. 
We spray our Roses each week during 
the growing secison—hence no fungous 
diseases.
