Denton, Texas 
Erwin’s Standard or Everblooming Roses 
Among all the flowering shrubs that grace the garden, none can compare to the 
Rose. Of diverse color and character of foliage, of endless design and color of blooms, 
it lends itself to a wider range of decoration than any other single group of plants. 
The Rose is truly termed “The Queen of Flowers.’’ And no garden or planting scheme 
is complete without its Rose bed. 
PRICES: In common with the practice of other nurseries we separate the field 
grown roses into three grades. No. 1 or heaviest grade; No. iy 2 , or medium grade; and 
No. 2, light grade. All are two year old plants, cultivated in the same nursery row 
and the grades will indicate the degrees of thriftiness in their growth. We strongly 
recommend the No. 1 grade. Our experience is that the difference in price is so small 
and the chances for results are so much better that they are cheapest in the end. 
Orders of half dozen or over accepted at dozen rates. 
Each Dozen 
No. 1 grade 35c $3.00
