DEPENDABLE GARDEN ROSES 
By all means have Roses in your garden—Roses to cut and 
Roses are not difficult to grow. Ordinary garden conditions, a 
soil that will grow good vegetables, and reasonable care will pro¬ 
duce surprisingly good blossoms from June until late October. No 
flower approaches the Rose in continuity of bloom or has its ap¬ 
peal as a cut-flower. Many new varieties have been added in recent 
years, increasing the color-range and at the same time making it 
possible to select varieties that can be grown without too much 
bring indoors where they may be enjoyed more intimately 
cultural attention. The beginner, however, will do well to con¬ 
sult one of the many good books available, such as “How to 
Grow Roses” or “The Rose in America.” 
Multiflora Japonica is the best rootstock; it produces strong, 
fibrous root-systems and is thoroughly at home under our New 
England conditions. With few exceptions, our plants are grown on 
this stock.
