ROSES 
NOTE: We are now offering both western-grown and southern-grown roses. 
When ordering please state which you prefer. 
Rose growing is one of our specialties. We produce large quantities in wide 
assortment. With the exception of a few of the common climbers, all of our 
Southern-grown roses are low budded on multiflora japonica, while our western- 
grown roses are low-budded on ragged-robin understocks. The roots of these un¬ 
derstocks are fibrous and pliable and adapted to most types of soil. Our method of 
propagating produces symmetrical well balanced plants with short shanks suitable 
either for pot or garden culture. All of our roses are graded carefully according to 
the standards of the American Association of Nurserymen. 
Look over this list and note the fine assortment offered. 
Broken lots of less than 10 of any one variety and girade will be billed at 15% 
above the 10 rate.
