ROSES 
All plants offered are two-year field-grown bushes. Cut back the top so 
only two or three of the stronger canes are left six inches long, and plant a 
little deeper than they grew, in well-drained rich soil. Sun until about 2 p.m. 
then shade, is the ideal exposure. 
We have condensed our list of varieties so it includes only the old standbys 
and newer varieties which are reported most satisfactory in the ‘‘Proof of the 
Pudding,” reports to the American Rose Society. These will give the most 
rose value per dollar spent for plants. Of the dozens of new varieties which 
are highly exploited each year by their introducers only a very few make good. 
QUANTITY PRICES. Almost as much work and expense is used in filling 
and packing an order for one bush as several, so we can give cheaper rates 
on larger quantities except of the patented varieties. 
On orders for 5 to 10 plants deduct ............ 5c per plant. 
On orders for 10 or more plants deduct ........ 10c per plant.
