The Rose has been for thousands of years the queen of flowers, 
and no garden can be complete without representatives of the 
different types of these lovely blooms. We list here only the best 
varieties of the different classes of Roses, in a quality of plant 
which will give the best service to our customer. 
For exhibition and cut-flower purposes, the Hybrid Teas are 
unsurpassed. For a sheer mass of color in the garden there is 
nothing like the Polyanthas. The Hybrid Perpetuals will give

of the old Moss Roses and that splendid shrub Rose, Rosa 
Hugonis.

Hybrid Tea Roses 
These popular flowers are crosses be¬

They give quantities of bloom of cut-flower 
quality on plants which are hardy with a 
little protection during the winter. 
They begin blooming in late May or 
early June, depending on the locality, and 
if given plenty of water, occasional appli¬ 
cations of fertilizer, and are kept sprayed 
or dusted so that the foliage is free of dis¬ 
ease or insects, will bloom practically con¬ 
tinuously until stopped by frosts. Book of 
Rose culture free with every order when 
requested. 
All of the Roses we offer are No. 1 grade, 
2-year-old, hardy, northern, field-grown
