Dependable Roses 
Roses are grown in every garden. It 
may be classed as the most popular gar¬ 
den flower today, because of the in¬ 
dividuality of its blooms rather than its 
landscape effect. We are listing a few 
varieties that we have found to 
be good and amongst the better- 
kinds under average con¬ 
ditions. You will note 
that they are reasonably 
priced for 2 year No. 1 
field grown plants. No 
better plants are obtain¬ 
able. No poorer grades 
are offered as assured 
success is obtained only 
with No. l’s. These are 
Northern grown and, 
hence, are worth twice 
as much as Southern 
grown ones. 
ETOILE DE HOLLANDE. Brilliant red and free flowering. 
60 c each. 
MRS. PIERRE DU PONT. Lasting fragrant Rose of a deep 
golden yellow. 60c each. 
RADIANCE. Brilliant rose-pink. Constant bloomer and ex¬ 
cellent cut flower. 60c each. 
PAUL’S SCARLET CLIMBER. The most popular of all climb¬ 
ing Roses. None can compare with it for brilliancy of color 
in its vivid scarlet. 60c each. 
Gleanings 
PLANT EARLY—as soon as your soil is in a workable con¬ 
dition. Early planting and successful results go hand in hand. 
USE A BALANCED FERTILIZER—plant food should be 
dug into the bed where flowers are planted or are to be plant¬ 
ed. VIGORO is an excellent garden fertilizer. A 25 pound bag 
will suffice for 875 square feet of lawn or garden. 100 pound 
bag $4.00; 25 pound bag $1.50; 10 pound carton 85c at our 
gardens. 
SECURE STRONG TWO YEAR, TRANSPLANTED FIELD 
GROWN PLANTS. This size, with very few exceptions, is 
the first essential to garden success. These are the kind of 
plants we grow for you. Do not be satisfied with skimpy 
plants out of a seed bed or distorted, crowded plants out of 
a row which some companies call field grown. 
FOR A WELL LANDSCAPED GARDEN EFFECT, plant 
three or more plants of a kind in a group. Large gardens may 
use a dozen or more of a kind in a group. 
WE OFFER ONLY THE BEST KINDS OF PERENNIALS 
AND ROCK PLANTS. Each year we try out new varieties 
of plants and continually keep discarding the poorer kinds 
of plants that we feel are unfit for your garden when they 
are compared with the better varieties. 
PLANTS WILL BE SHIPPED BY PARCEL POST OR EX¬ 
PRESS at our option, unless specific shipping instructions are 
received with order. Transportation charges are paid by the 
customer. We will send you a notice of the exact cost of 
transportation after the plants are sent, provided we ship by 
parcel post. 
Daphne Cneorum 
A lovely, low-growing plant at all times, but at its best 
during May and June, when it is completely covered with 
clustered bright pink, delicately perfumed, blooms. Some 
flowers appear again in Autumn. A splendid 8 to 12 inch high 
plant for the rock garden or as an edging plant in front of 
evergreens and shrubs. It prefers a sunny position in a well 
drained soil. Protect the evergreen foliage from winter-burn¬ 
ing with a little straw. Bushy plants, 9-12 inches across $1.00 
each. 
Pansies 
This year we have four fine large beds of pansies. Last year 
thousands of people were delighted with the brilliance and 
beauty of our pansy beds. Stop in at our nursery this spring 
and get your pansies freshly dug—not those that have stood 
around in baskets in front of some grocery store for a week 
or more. Plant as early as possible for best results. You get 
the best in Pansies when you get our All-American Bedders 
or our Improved Swiss Giants in mixed colors.
