“Roses 
Roses—the mere name is an inspiration to garden lovers. Nothing can take the 
place of the Rose. In order that you may have success in growing these beautiful plants, 
we offer a few cultural suggestions. They thrive best in a garden where the morning 
sun reaches them. All roses should be planted so that the place where they are grafted 
or budded is two or three inches below the surface. Tramp in firmly and water well. 
Keep the soil around the roses well cultivated and clean. Roses can be protected in 
winter by mounding up the dirt around them and covering the ground with straw or 
litter to prevent alternate freezing and thawing. 
We list below the roses we have in quantity, the most popular varieties and the 
ones most likely to succeed in this region. However, we often have others in fewer 
numbers, depending upon the crop yield. All are two year field grown plants.

Conditions prevent us from planting less than six roses and then only when plant 
bed is already prepared. The above prices are for bare root plants handled only in 
dormant seasons. Additional charge will be made for Potted Roses, which can be 
handled any time.
