‘Brecht Hybrid Tea Rese 
A, great shortage of Hybrid Tea Roses exists. As we go to press with this catalog we know that this year’s demand for really top quality Hybrid Tea 
Roses will greatly exceed the available supply. We handle but one grade—the best. When the supply of these fine Roses is exhausted we will stop ship- 
ping for the season. Consequently we urge the early placing of orders, and in the filling of same we reserve the right (unless specifically advised to the 
contrary) to substitute varieties of equal or greater merit where substitutions are necessary. Labor shortage makes the offering of potted Roses impossible 
this year. All of Breck’s Quality Roses therefore will be shipped DORMANT. Rose orders will be handled in rotation. Please order early. We don't 
want you to be disappointed. We urge early Spring planting in the case of all dormant stock. Plant Rose bushes as soon as you receive them. Don’t 
expose them, to drying conditions. All varieties in LARGE TYPE are illustrated in color. We pay parcel post delivery charges on all Roses at catalog 
prices. When ordering 12 or more Hybrid Tea Roses to be shipped at one time to one address you may add up the total cost and deduct 10 per cent 
IF cash accompanies the order. This special discount does not apply to our ‘‘Gem Collection for 1944” illustrated on page 97.
