IMPORTANT! 
Place your orders early— 
AT ONCE, if possible. Orders 
are filled in the rotation in 
which they are received, and 
if our supply of some varieties 
is low, the early orders always 
get the preference. 

What QD means: 
ALL-AMERICA ROSE 
SELECTIONS 
The All-America Award is 
the highest distinction bestowed 
in this country on the very best 
new Roses. Plants are sent to 
eighteen official test gardens 
‘and six demonstration gardens 
located in different parts of the 
country so that all major types 
of climate, soil, and other grow- 
ing conditions are represented. 
For two years, expert, impartial 
judges carefully check the de- 
velopment and growth of all 
Roses, scoring each one on 
separate and distinct qualities. 
The highest scores are then 
submitted to the National Rose 
Jury, which selects the winners. 
Gardeners can buy these new 
Rose varieties with confidence, 
knowing they are getting the 
very best.

Gerard K. Klyn has been growing Roses here in Mentor, Ohio, for the last 
thirty years. Our farms are located along the shores of Lake Erie where the soil 
and climatic conditions are most favorable to growing A No. 1 Roses. Mr. Klyn, 
who grew Roses in Holland before coming to Mentor, supervises and rigidly in- 
spects all operations from the time the understock is set in the ground until the 
finished plant is dug. 
Gerard K. Klyn, Inc., spares no expense to grow Roses properly, dig them 
carefully, and pack them so they reach you in the very best condition. 
We will pay the postage on all shipments, and we guarantee the plants to

our instructions. Full instructions will be found in each shipment.
