ROS ES — Queen af Blowers 
Many 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 
Grenoble 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 
ecu during summer, protected over winter, you will find a planting of Roses one of the most satisfactory expenditures for your 
garden. 
QUALITY PLANTS. The price of a rose bush, like most other articles, should not determine its value. Good Roses are ones which are 
z true to name—properly grown, which includes cultivation, spraying and under-stock—ripened by nature—handled so they will not be 
ee ues devitalized by exposure—free of leaf diseases—strong and with good roots.
