While Roses have for ages been known as the “Queen of Flowers,” they are adaptable to the 
simplest garden. Make a real Rose-garden if you can, but if not, find room for at least a few climbers 
and Hybrid Teas. 
Any good garden soil with a half-day’s sunshine will grow Roses. Dig the hole large enough to 
hold the roots without crowding; set the bush so that the crown comes just at the soil surface. Pack 
the soil well around the roots and water copiously. As the season advances, keep the plants sprayed 
well with Tri-Ogen to ward off insects and diseases. 
The varieties we offer are the backbone of most Rose-gardens. They include the best of both 
new and old varieties; all are thoroughly reliable.

Your choice of variety, $1.95 each, postpaid $2.05 
In every field of Rose plants there are sure to be certain bushes 
that stand out as superior to the others in sturdiness and size. 
When transplanted to your garden they will have a “head start” 
on their neighbors. These extra-strong plants we offer as “Silver 
Giant”? Roses; we recommend them unreservedly as the most 
dependable plants for quick bloom. All are Hybrid Teas unless 
noted otherwise.
