As you turn to this page, 
you are introduced to ROSE 
HEADQUARTERS, Hamburg, Iowa, 
the home of Inter-State Nurseries, who for 
two successive years, 1933 and 1934, were chosen to 
plant and exhibit the Official Rose Garden at Chicago’s 
World’s Fair, as America’s Rose Representative. 
Millions marveled at this beautiful sight and wondered 
how such marvelous roses could be grown in a section 
which was believed to be so unsuited for rose growing. 
You, too, can grow roses. Read some of the letters on 
page 24. From the North, the East, the South, the 
West, we have files full of letters telling us of the great 
succe.ss of Inter-State Roses. 
The 2 
Year No. 1 Select¬ 
ed Plants are the finest it is 
possible to grow. These roses have made 
Inter-State roses famous all over America. We abso¬ 
lutely and unconditionally guarantee that you cannot 
buy better plants. 
Here is a fascinating selection of glorious roses from 
I one of the World’s great rose firms, offering hundreds 
i of thousands of plants in the new varieties as well as 
■ the old favorites. Each year many thousands join the 
host of rose lovers who buy from this dependable list 
of Hardy Everblooming Roses. We believe that no¬ 
where else in America can you select from such a 
complete and choice list of varieties at such low prices 
for UNCONDITIONALLY GUARANTEED 
ROSES. 
These roses will commence blooming a few weeks 
after planting and continue throughout the season. 
We send you complete instructions on how to plant 
and care for your roses, summer and winter. 
We offer you two sizes of rose plants. Both are strictly 
first quality, hardy, 2 year, field-grown budded plants. 
The 2 Year Standard Size are smaller plants. This is 
the size plant used by most firms who merely describe 
their roses as 2 year field-grown. In fact, we believe, 
you will find our plants to be better. They are a great 
value at their lower price for they are genuine Inter- 
State roses and they will bloom this summer. You 
have your choice of exactly the same fine varieties. 
Our Unconditional Guarantee applies to this size also 
but of course, you must not expect the Standard Size 
to be as good as the 2 Year No. 1 Select Size. 
PLANT YOUR ROSES EARLY, JUST AS SOON 
AS THE GROUND IS READY. THE SOONER 
YOU PLANT, THE SOONER THEY BLOOM.
