ROSES 
UR old friends and customers know that it has been 
our policy for many years to follow a conservative 
course with Rose varieties. We have maintained, and 
with good reason, that no new variety, however highly 
recommended elsewhere, was worth catalogue space 
until it had been tried and proved for at least two 
seasons under the special conditions to be found in the 
latitude where most of our Roses are sold. 
Now, however, when almost every day sees the ad- 
vent of a new variety somewhere in the world, the 
old attitude among Rose lovers is giving way to a def- 
inite restlessness, a sort of impatience with time that 
clearly says, ‘‘We do not want to wait. Let us judge 
these grand new Roses.”’ In acceding to these wishes we 
have been guided in our offerings, whether of patented 
sorts or not, by the opinions of those who are best 
qualified to suggest and advise. Our list of varieties is 
now considerably lengthened by some of the very 
latest and most brilliant introductions to the Rose 
world. 
In the following categories are to be found Roses for 
every need, grown on understocks suited to the most 
particular situation. Try Mme. Plantier if you are 
among the many who expect, but rarely get, long-lived 
Roses in the southernmost states. Many of these 
enormous bushes or semi-trees that we used to see on 
grandmother’s lawn (or even more recently) were grown 
on Plantier stock. 
Cherokee has been a lifesaver for lots of us because of 
its remarkable toughness as a rootstock. If about to 
despair, give Cherokee a chance to show what it can do 
in those almost impossible spots. 
Of course, the majority of our Roses are on Multiflora, 
which we have so far found to be unsurpassed for 
general use, 
Glen Roses are graded according to the standards of 
the American Association of Nurserymen,

husky.

finest bedding Roses. Vigorous and bushy, 
well adapted to massing in the border.
