Many of our friends will recognize this view of our thoroughly 
practical garden featuring Roses and Azaleas at the Philadelphia 
Flower Show, March 1942. For more than 20 years, Bobbink & 
Atkins have exhibited their plants in gardens at the great 
Everblooming Hybrid Tea 
ROM the long list of thousands of varieties we and others 
have brought into commerce over. a period of many 
years, you will find in this section only those that have 
survived the test for plant-vigor and blooming habits in most 
parts of the United States. 
These Roses give beautiful, long-stemmed, fragrant flowers 
over a very long season. Planted in the fall, they produce 
their fmest blooms the first year in early summer and con- 
tinue throughout the season. Practically all everblooming 
Hybrid Tea Roses are fragrant at some time of the day. Most 
of them are reliably hardy all over the United States if pro- 
tected in winter as recommended on the cultural instructions 
that accompany each shipment. 
New York, Boston, and Philadelphia Flower Shows. Our effort 
shall always be to show the proper use of suitable plants and 
their arrangement in large and modest size gardens of every type.

Roses for Fall Planting 
able under the widest range of soil and climatic conditions. 
Planting Directions: Average 15 to 18 inches apart each 
way. This does not mean that Hybrid Tea Roses must be 
planted in a bed by themselves. It is true that when they 
are planted in quantities, then one should keep them together 
to simplify maintenance. However, delightful effects are 
obtained by planting groups of 3 to 5 near the edges of shrub- 
bery borders, or wherever it may be suitable for you to enjoy 
the lovely Roses even though it may be in partial shade. 
Most of the tested varieties in this section will thrive in 
an ordinary garden soil capable of growing other deciduous 
plants. 
Heights: Where letter follows name, D indicates 1 to 
11% feet; T, 3 feet and over. All others are average height,
