TREE ROSES 
A tree rose is a bush rose that is 
budded about 42 inches high on cane of 
another species of rose. We bud our tree 
roses on a thornless stock that does not 
send up root suckers. The ordinary wild 
rose, that is too often used for a tree 
rose stock, is prone to fill the surround- 
ing ground with suckers that must be 
continually cut down. Our stock does 
not do this and seems to be much longer- 
lived than the common wild stock. 
These color ful plants should be more 
used in landscape work. They produce 
large amounts of color through a very 
long season. Where one wants a supply 
of fine, exhibition type rose buds for 
cut flowers, the hybrid-tea varieties are 
most satisfactory. If a great mass of 
color is wanted through many months, 
give attention to floribundas and poly- 
anthas as tree roses. Climbers, of varie- 
ties that produce weak canes, make beau- 
tiful weepers. Price tree roses, $3.00 ea.

POLYANTHA VARIETIES 
AS TREE ROSES 
We believe that the most: important 
use of tree roses is to provide garden 
display, rather than for the production 
of cut flowers. If large masses of color 
through a long season is desired, we 
believe that the varieties listed in this 
section are most satisfactory. Polyanthas 
and floribundas are the best producers 
of flowers in the rose world. They are 
nearly continually in bloom from spring 
till fall, producing flowers in great clus- 
ters. The same varieties may be had 
either as bush roses or as tree roses.

ites. —
