Old-fashioned Roses 
Every grown man and woman cherishes some memory 
of the fragrant, unsophisticated charm of the Roses of 
long ago. But regardless of their sentimental value, they 
have many sterling qualities, not the least of which is their 
old-Rose perfume, oft-times rare in modern Roses. Friends 
of Bobbink & Atkins have known for a Jong time of our 
sincere interest in Old-Fashioned Roses, and we promise 
this interest shall never wane as the years roll on. 
Planted in mixed shrubbery borders simulating old-\g 
fashioned gardens, they may be given a place apart from @ 
the Rose garden where they bloom among the wallflowers, 
the daffodils and the primroses, blending their fragrance 
with the lilies and pmks, and all the other delightful 
perennials. The true gardener realizes they seldom bloom 
much the first year, but like lilacs, Philadelphus, Deutzia, 
Weigela, and other hardy shrubs they continue year after 
year with the Jeast amount of care. They may be kept 
pruned back to about 3 feet if one wishes to enjoy the very 
finest blooms on Rose shrubs.
