C. H. STOCKING 
ROSES 
T is a pleasure for us to present you with this little rose 
booklet this year and hope you may find something inter¬ 
esting and helpfnl in it. 
An earnest endeavor has been made to give you an ac¬ 
curate description of the roses. Our description is as we see them 
modified with reports from other sections of the country. Roses do vary 
in different soils and climates, often performing quite differently within 
short distances. 
Please note that nearly all hybrid tea roses today are everbloom- 
ing and unless otherwise noted, the varieties listed are comparatively 
disease resistant. All plants listed are grown on Odorata root or 
otherwise designated. 
The stock this year is excellent. Every plant is guaranteed to reach 
you in perfect condition, to be true to name and grade and to grow if 
given proper care. Should any be found to be otherwise, they will be 
replaced or money refunded. AVe shall consider it a favor if you will 
notify us of any failures you may have had with our stock in the past. 
The prices quoted are for strictly number one grade, two-year-old 
field grown stock, graded to comply with the California Grades and 
Standards Law.
