Would Jove appoint some flower to reign 
In matchless beauty on the plain, 
The Rose (mankind will all agree), 
The Rose the queen of flowers should be. 
And the Rose has retained the crown through all the 
centuries since Sappho’s time. Perfection of form and 
color, long-lasting, most delightfully fragrant—every qual¬ 
ity for which you could ask. Her varieties are legion; 
these we offer are among the best.
