THOMASVILLE ROSES 
49 Years with Roses 


























From many hundreds of varieties we have selected those found to be the 
best for the Southeast. We do not offer the endless list of varieties found in 
up-country catalogues, nor do we confine our selection to Hybrid Teas. To serve 
the fullest requirements of our customers, we offer the best in the Old-Fashioned 
Teas, the Hybrid Teas, Hybrid Perpetuals, Floribundas, Polyanthas, and 
Climbers, listing each class separately. 
Gren 1898 the growing of quality Rose plants has been a specialty w ee us. 
We have another very good crop of Roses, grown under ideal conditions. 
You will like these Roses, budded on stocks suited to the Southeast and guaran- 
teed true to name. We exercise every care in digging properly, packing roots in 
moist sphagnum moss and wrapping well, so that the bushes will reach you 
safely. While we have increased our Rose production somewhat, we still do not 
have enough, and we urge ordering early. 
Roses thrive in most garden soils capable of growing flowering trees and 
shrubs. Dig holes at least 18 inches in depth and width, and use several shovel- 
fuls of well-rotted cow manure; or if this is not available, use peat humus, or 50 
per cent of each. Set the plants just deep enough to cover the bud union, which 
means | or 2 inches deeper than they stood in the nursery. Pack well and water 
thoroughly. In the spring use a balanced commercial fertilizer. Vigoro is highly 
recommended and is obtainable in any size package desired. The American Rose 
Society’s handbook, “What Every Rose-Grower Should Know,” makes Rose 
growing easy by providing the answers to questions on planting and care when 
you need them. We recommend the use of this little reference book. 
Production is up somewhat this year as compared with last, but we still will EREIHERR VON 
not have enough Roses to last the season through. And there is no way of telling MARSCHALL 
in advance just how long the supply of certain varieties will last. While we fill << 
orders with first-choice varieties as long as they last, we respectfully request your 
permission to substitute intelligently with varieties of the same class, similar 
color, labeled true to name, and of equal or greater value where certain kinds 
have become sold out as the season advances.

OLD ROSES 
We offer many varieties that are 
time tested and proven, such as 
Old-Fashioned Teas, Climbers, and 
Floribundas, not usually listed in 
most catalogues. The old-timers 
may not be as flashy as some of the 
new ones, but you'll love them for 
their persistence and dependability. 
There are many beautiful and fra- 
grant Roses in these long-life va- 
rieties.
