FALL 1947 - SPRING 1948 
Our rose bushes are all good healthy, field grown. Each bush is labelled true to name. If any 
prove not true, we will gladly replace them. 
All of our rosebushes are budded on Odorata root stock. From tests conducted in many sections 
of the country, this root stock has proven the best, as hybrid-tea varieties budded on it 
outgrow and live longer than on other root stocks. We grow all the rosebushes offered for 
sale in this catalog in our nursery at Stockton. We also exercise the greatest care in dig- 
ging, packing and shipping so that they get to you in the best condition. 
We will replace any bushes that you receive from us that were damaged in shipping if notified 
within ten days, but do not replace good bushes that are planted and do not grow as there 
are too many soil and climatic conditions that we have no control over. 
The first spring after planting rose bushes only remove old flowers, leaving all stems and 
leaves possible. If flowers are cut with long stems the first spring it weakens the plants. 
All our bush roses, if given the proper care, will bloom for you the first Spring and will con- 
tinue all Summer and Fall. Climbing roses bloom very little the first year, but will be 
covered with bloom the second Spring. 
When Ordering By Mail Read Carefully 
Please mention if you want us to substitute, in case we are out of some varieties that you

Send your order early so as to get all the varieties that you want. Please send cash, check
