OUR score years have passed since Joseph W. Vestal founded 
the still-growing business which now supplies the farm and 
garden horticultural and floricultural wants of the citizens of 
Arkansas and the surrounding states. 
Jos. W. (Walter) Vestal and C. H. (Howell) Vestal, shown on 
this page, are grandsons of the founder and now operate the Vestal 
business. We represent the third generation of Vestals in its present 
location. Walter looks after production and Howell takes care 
of the office. Ask for us when you visit Little Rock; we would like 
to get acquainted with every one of our customers. 
We have enjoyed growing plants because we Iove them, and by 
growing good plants the house of Vestal has prospered. 
Both climate and soil here at Little Rock are favorable to plant- 
growth, enabling us to produce strong, healthy plants with vigorous 
root systems that insure success when moved to your farm or garden. 
Keeping this business up to its high standard requires con- 
tinuous study of modern methods of cultivation and pest control, 
as well as the never-ending testing of the world’s new plants. As 
we do not list a plant until it has proved worthy, our customers do 
not have to wonder about any plant offered in a Vestal catalogue. 
In addition to farms for the growth of outdoor plants, the 
Vestal Plant includes acres of glass where cut-flowers and potted 
plants are produced to supply our flower shops and where propaga- 
tion of all kinds of plants takes place. 
The quality of our plants is the highest; our prices are Jow—as 
low as we can make them and still have a small profit for ourselves. 
With the increasing volume of orders from all over the United 
States, we are able to ship the finest plants at the lowest prices 
consistent with any kind of quality. 
We know that our stock is grown right and handled right after 
it is dug, enabling us to deliver superior plants which are bringing 
many favorable reports from satisfied customers, not only in the 
South but from all parts of the United States. Vestal Roses will 
thrive anywhere that Roses can be grown. 
We believe that the reason Roses have not been more generally 
grown in the South is that gardeners were not getting good plants 
suited to their conditions. If you are having trouble with Roses, 
tell us about it; we shall be glad to advise you. 
We shall be happy to have you visit our greenhouses and nurs- 
eries any time you are passing through Little Rock.
