Every home, whether on smallest city 
lot or large estate, has a plot or plots 
where Modern Roses can be enjoyed. 
HYBRID TEAS 
for beds along walks or 
drives, beds set into the 
lawn, formal gardens, 
cutting gardens, etc. 
FLORIBUNDAS 
for all the uses of Hybrid 
Teas, also for mass display, 
accent in shrubbery, bor- 
ders, etc. 
Everblooming, the Modern Hybrid Tea Roses are the most popular of all flowers. There is 
no greater thrill than to cut from your own Rose garden exquisite, perfect blooms like those 
in the florists’ windows and at the Rose Shows. New thousands every year learn how sim- 
ple it is co plant and care for Modern Roses. See pages 4 to 19. 
Hybrid Tea Roses should be planted in rows 18 in. apart, spaced ai about 16-in. intervals 
in row. In the South and Far West planting distances ny AF 
d be somewhat greater. 
Be sure to include these marvelous new Roses—the hardy, everblooming race that has in- 
spired the Floribunda vogue all over America. Their profuse clusters of Hybrid-Tea-size 
Owers create outstanding massed color effects and are equally suited for shrubbery plantings, 
borders and beds. Many gardeners secure very striking effects in groups of 3 to 5 or more of a 
variety in shrub borders or special beds. There are interesting suggestions for uses on page 20. 
' Because of their dense foliage and bushiness, plant Floribundas 18 in. or more apart.

The J. & P. 
Motto— 
XPERIENCED gardeners recognize true values and fair 
prices. The continuing and abundant harvest of J. & P. 
Modern Roses from June to October quickly demonstrates 
the futility of the small savings through lower prices for 
inferior grades. J. & P. Modern Rose plants are more than 
*‘No. 1 grade’’ and *‘2-yr.-old’’—they are the finest that modern 
horticultural skill has been able to produce—superior in hardi- 
ness, resistance to disease, form, fragrance, habit and abundance 
of bloom. They are full-stemmed with robust root systems, 
tested and proved by two years’ growth in our own fields, true 
to name and class, sturdy and free from disease. 
Largest Rese Hybridizing and 
Research Dept. in the World 
The Jackson & Perkins Dept. of Plant Research maintains the 
world’s largest Rose hybridizing operations to assure continued 
progress in the Parade of Modern Roses. Because of their 
excellence, J. & P. Modern Roses were used exclusively in the 
Rose Gardens in ‘‘Gardens on Parade’’ at the great New York 
World’s Fair; several are All-America winners. 
120 Testing Stations, Coast to Coast 
Even after extended trials of new Roses in our nurseries, we 
take another two years for actual garden tests by 120 trusted 
observers from coast to coast, to further assure satisfactory 
performance everywhere in the U.S. A. 
Also Creators of Modern Perennials 
Under the direction of Eugene S. Boerner, wide improvement 
has also been made in Modern Perennials.
