ROSES OF DISTINCTION 
Introduced Before the Plant Patent Law Became Effective 
In making up the following list of Roses, we have selected only the choicest varie- 
ties, in complete assortment of all colors and shades. Our Roses are all strong 
2-year field-grown plants with well balanced tops and roots, and are not to be 
confused with lighter grades offered at lower prices. All have bloomed in the nursery 
before being dug for shipment and with proper care will grow and bloom profusely
