STANDARD or TREE ROSES 
What does the most toward making a good plant? The answer certainly is — a good 
root system. IXL unquestionably makes the best cane but when grown as usual from cut- 
tings has miserable roots. To remedy this we bud the IXLon Odorata which has an unexcelled 
root system. Then we insert four buds at 36 inches to make a strong, well-balanced head. 
All this costs money, but results in the finest tree rose that can be grown! 
All orders have now been filled or the plants set aside and an accurate count made of 
what is left. Apparently some errors were made in earlier tabulations as we find fairly good 
numbers of some varieties that we thought were sold out.
