The ““ALL-AMERICAS” are roses that are chosen after tests in 16 
official trial gardens throughout the country, and voted upon by a 
group of well-known rose authorities who report on all roses entered 
in open competition. Each year one new rose of outstanding merit, 
which receives enough votes to be so classified, is given ‘‘ALL- 
AMERICA” rating, and thus judged to be the best of the yedr’s new 
varieties. No rose is voted upon until it has been grown two years in 
the trial gardens. The ‘‘ALL-AMERICA” stamp is your assurance of 
the finest of the new roses.
