ROSES— 
ANY ROSES which succeed in the North and other parts of the country do 
not do so well in Kentucky. Almost every Rose listed in our catalog has 
been tested on our own grounds and proven satisfactory and dependable. We 
have discarded or do not carry many which will be described favorably in other 
lists. Why spend your money and time on doubtful kinds when you can buy our 
“Tried and Tested’’ Roses? 
No flower is so much loved, appreciated and enjoyed as the Rose. It is still 
the ‘‘Queen of Flowers.’’ If properly sprayed and culti- 
vated during summer, protected over winter, you will find 
a planting of Roses one of the most satisfactory expendi- 
tures for your garden.

The following were selected as the best of the newer 
varieties. All have distinct merit, and we recommend 
them to those who are looking for something new and

grant, vigorous and excellent for cutting.

It really is a picture.

edges. Extra large bud and blossom which is delight- 
, fully fragrant.

high-centered buds of velvety texture on long stems.
