high and each have a spread of seven feet. 
RAFFEL’S NEW METHOD TREE ROSES 
These tree roses are grown by an improved method much like our “Super Bush Rose.” 
Instead of planting a short cutting in the nursery and training it to a stake, as with 
ordinary tree roses, we plant a cutting the full length the trunk of the tree rose is to 
be, and bud the head directly into this cutting, making a tree rose that has no joint at 
the ground to sucker from. Also we leave some of the wild top on as with the “Super 
Rose Bushes.” Your care for this top is the same. This type of tree rose will produce 
many times the flowers of those grown the old method. Odorata is used for the under- 
stock. 
Budded 24 inches high, No. 1 grade $1.10 each. 
Not less than three of these roses will be mailed to any one address. On all orders in 
California, send 15 cents extra on each tree rose for postage and packing. Aso 3% 
sales tax. All orders from Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Nevada, Arizona, Montana, 
Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico and Utah send 20 cents extra on each. All other 
states, send 30 cents extra. Send sales tax only on orders in California. Be sure to 
read page one before ordering. Orders amounting to $25.00 or more, we will not 
charge for packing and will ship by express, collect, which will be much cheaper 
than our regular charge for packing and postage on smaller orders. We will dig 
these tree roses with a ball of earth for 25 cents each extra, but do not ship these balled 
plants. Order these balled plants at least one week before calling for them. Read 
page one before ordering.
