Tree Shaped or Standard Types 
Germain’s Tree Roses are the same so far as color and form are concerned as the bush 
varieties of the same name, the difference being that the variety desired is budded on long 
straight stems at a uniform height of 40 inches so as to provide a tree shape. 
The Tree Rose is excellent for lining driveways and walks, as lawn or parkway specimens 
and frequently in group massing, providing unequalled beauty and color. As a rule they 
bloom quite profusely furnishing exquisite flowers on long stems.

strong branching plants. (See color page Q)—.....—$2.75
