EUTIN—One scarcely can say enough good things about this marvelous rose. Huge 
clusters of unfading crimson double blooms on a completely blackspot resistant plant 
with glossy foliage. These long graceful trusses are délightful when used as” cut 
flowers. You can plant it anywhere in the shrub border, as you do not have to spray 
or fuss around with it like other roses. No further discount.................... Six for $6.00 
ORANGE TRIUMPH—This is not orange, but a clear gleaming coral; the bright clus- 
tered double blooms backed by burnished foliage make it enormously decorative, both 
in the garden and when cut. The graceful trusses combine in delightful flower ar- 
rangements. The plant is extremely healthy, compact in form, low growing. There 
were some simple minded pinheads in the A. R. S. who knocked this rose because it 
was misnamed, and they attempted to judge from one plant, too, They did not have 
enough above the eyes to realize that in the German climate where it was created it 
was a reddish orange. I believe it to be the finest variety created of its color for 
many years for the purpose of massing or borders. In all of the Northwest or cooler 
area it makes a complete carpet of color all season long. It should be pruned hard 
whenever a crop of bloom is through. No further discount.......--..-..2.....- Six for $6.00 
LITTLE TREES OF NIGGER BOY 
I call these Half Standards as they are budded about 18 inches from the ground. 
These little trees do not need staking and make plants about 16 to 18 inches across that 
are almost constant bloomers, thus giving you medium sized red intensely fiery rich red 
blooms that attract an immense amount of attention wherever seen. 
This is the first time I have ever been able to get enough of these much sought after 
items to catalog. Use as a border along a walk or drive; spaced about 2 feet apart they 
make an unforgettable picture. If you want something very distinctive in your garden as 
well as something which is uncommon, these are the answer. 
They are on non-suckering roots and are really foolproof to grow as they bloom so 
heavily they do not even need staking as the top never’ grows very much—just blooms. 
For further description see under H. Polanthas. As a further attraction there will be no 
added packing charge......... $3.50 each; $35.00 dozen. No further discount on this item. 
Not less than six at dozen rate. 
WINTER PROTECTION OF ROSES 
The best winter protection is to hill earth up around the canes of the bushes to.a 
height of at least 8 inches. Take precautions to have these mounds WET when freezing 
weather comes on. If the mounds freeze when dry the bushes may not survive. When 
the mounds are solidly frozen, cover with evergreen boughs or similar loose open material 
to a depth of about a foot. The covering is to keep the mound solidly frozen. by 
giving it additional protection against the sun’s rays, and also to keep greater cold from 
penetrating.
