The Goad Redes 
OF NEW CASTLE 
HE horsepower in the motor of an automobile is all-im- 
portant. So, too, in a Rose plant is the motor or the 
roots of all-importance. Without strong, working masses 
of active roots a Rose plant is of comparatively little value. 
For nearly 50 years we have been perfecting this important 
essential. Our Roses are pot-grown. They are on their own 
roots. No wild suckers to contend with as frequently is the 
case in budded, dormant, field-grown Rose plants. These fa- 
mous Roses of ours are grown in scientifically prepared 
benches where each plant receives individual care. Water 
is given them when they need it and during the growing 
season they are sprayed with pure water under high pressure 
to keep them clean, healthy and growing constantly. This 
important cultural system can’t be followed in the produc- 
tion of field-grown Roses.

In the late fall during cold weather they are lifted from the growing benches and quickly transferred 
to large pots or crocks. The root action continues to develop during the entire winter months just as trees 
develop roots during the winter. The plants are kept just above freezing, 34 to 36 degrees. The entire 
action of the plant centers in making myriads of new, white feeding roots which cannot be made under 
any other method of growing that we know of. With the opening of spring, these roots develop mag- 
nificent tops. 
The plants are shipped to you with all the winter-developed root action intact and when 
planted after all danger of severe frost is past in just ordinary good garden soil, 
they take hold instantly and give a splendidly developed plant ready to produce 
gorgeous flowers early and continuously. Our method of growing these guaranteed 
plants is not duplicated elsewhere. 
For planting early in the spring and any month thereafter until fall, they will 
give absolute satisfaction. We sell them, without the aid of the middleman, direct 
to you, taking pretty much all the risk out of your Rose growing. 
Field-grown Rose plants are budded or grafted on a wild Rose root. In many 
cases there is not much danger of suckers or wild shoots from the wild roots, and 
when properly dug and stored by skilled and conscientious growers they give satis- 
factory results. But a great deal of disappointment arises from the thousands of 
plants produced in this way due to inefficient and inexperienced handling. Our 
Roses come to you, the planter, from us, the producers—scientifically grown and 
expertly packed.
