S. & W. CO.'S GUARANTEED ROSES 
Our Roses are re-selected from selected No. 1 grade plants and are the best obtainable. Each will have three or more branches, according 
to the characteristics of the variety. They are dug in late autumn, the roots being wrapped in damp moss and burlap, and stored over winter. 
Proper storage is essential for the well-being of living merchandise—the facilities which we have, with modern methods for controlling temperature 
and humidity, are ideal. These healthier plants will show superior quality when growing in your garden. Planted in spring, practically all 
types will bloom this year; the exceptions are a few Climbers, which may not flower until 1939. 
WE GUARANTEE our Roses to reach you in good condition and to live; we will replace without charge any that may not be 
alive two months after you purchase them. 
We supply Dormant Plants of all varieties up to May 15. We also offer the varieties marked with an asterisk (*) in full leaf, growing in 
6-inch pots, from May 15 to June 30.
