ROSES 
Every Variety a 
Standard of Quality 
Some of the finest rose gardens in the United States are in New England, proving for once and all that an abundance 
of beautiful Roses may be had by anyone who is willing to give them a little space and reasonable care. 
We have chosen the varieties carefully for beauty of bloom, health, and vigor of growth. The ground in which they 
are to be planted should be prepared as for a good crop of vegetables, although extra deep spading and fertilising will 
be an advantage if especially fine specimen blooms are desired. These plants will bloom from June to frost. All of these 
Roses should be given winter protection during late autumn. The second year and after, they should be fertilised regularly. 
Hybrid Tea Roses 
Many Varieties Bloom From June Until Frost 
These are the everblooming Roses which produce the beautiful, 
long-stemmed flowers everyone so much admires. They should be 
planted about 15 inches apart in rather narrow beds and in lots of 
not less than three, and preferably a half-dozen or more, of one kind. 
Prices, except as otherwise noted: 
Dormant plants 75c each; ^6.50 per 10. 
Potted plants ^1.00 each; $9.00 per 10.
