ALL-AMERICA ROSE SELECTIONS 
All-America Rose Selections, A.A.R.S., an organization of the leading Rose grow- 
ers located in various parts of the United States, was organized in 1938 for the pur- 
pose of testing and selecting new varieties of roses of outstanding merit. The 
organization maintains fifteen official test gardens located in all parts of the country 
for the testing and judging of proposed new varieties. One test garden is maintained 
on our nurseries, Shenandoah, Iowa. 
We offer the following varieties of roses which have secured the award of “All- 
American Rose Selections”. These are the finest of the new varieties.
