VARIETIES: There are over 5,000 different varieties of roses known. It, is, of course, 
impossible for us to sell all varieties. Therefore, we grow and list only the most outstanding 
phe chepae pean both for their superior characteristics as plants and for their proven ability as 
sales leaders. 
GRADES OF PLANTS: We have always maintained our own standards of grading for our var- 
ious brands of packaged plants. Because of numerous requests for comparison of our brands 
with AAN (American Association of Nurserymen) standards, the following is noted. There is 
no comparable grade for our Silver Seal. Only the heaviest and most select plants with a mini- 
mum of 4 heavy canes from the best 10% of our crop are used in this grade. Plants in our 
Gold Seal brand have a minimum of 3 heavy canes and are never less than a No. 1; plants in 
our Red Seal brand are heavy, well branched, medium or 114 grade. Plants in our RC5 are never 
less than No. 2 grade with a minimum of 2 canes. 
BULK OR BARE ROOT ROSE BUSHES: In addition to our packaged plants we are in a position 
to supply rose bushes in bulk, bare root (not individually packaged). Our cold storage and ship- 
ping facilities are unexcelled and enable us to make shipment of good strong plants in the best of 
condition anytime from 1st of October to lst of May. Write for our special price and variety 
list. 
MAIL ORDER SERVICE: In addition to our regular line of packaged plants for counter sales 
we are prepared to handle special orders for direct shipment to your customers. Write for de- 
tails and price schedule. 
IMITATIONS: To avoid any confusion or misunderstanding (which have resulted in loss and 
considerable embarrassment to many) as to our identity and locations we make the following 
statements. All packaged plants sold by C. E. Wilson Nurseries of Jacksonville, Texas, and Wil-

SHIPPING SEASON: Fall planting normally can be accomplished any time after October 1st and 
since fall is the best time of year for planting in the South, more and more customers are pur- 
chasing their plants at that time. Stores are advised to take advantage of this trend and increase 
their plant sales by ordering shipments for October and November. Weather conditions permit- 
ting, our shipping season starts October 1st and shipments can be made anytime thereafter. 
Also, because of our cold storage facilities, shipments can be extended through April thus in- 
creasing the length of the selling season. 
TERMS: Orders should be made out in multiples of 6 of a variety. Deluxe Silver Seal in all 
instances, and Gold Seal Brand where so specified on orders, will be packed 12 to a carton suitable 
for display use. Otherwise, orders will be shipped in convenient size cartons with quantities as 
indicated in price schedules. All prices quoted are wholesale prices, net 30 days from date of 
invoice. Prices are for immediate acceptance only. All stock is offered subject to being unsold on 
receipt of order and without liability to us should the stock be injured by frost, hail, fire or other
