Have Better Success with Holmes 
NEW PATENTED ROSES 
FLORIDA PROVEN FOR FLORIDA GROWING 
It takes two years to get every Holmes Rose ready for 
sale to you. Two years’ investment in money, care, skill, 
feeding, spraying, then a trial of Florida’s kind of sun, 
rain, wind in our nursery. 
That is why they do so much better in your garden. 
Compare this with store plants shipped from another 
state one day, unloaded and dumped on “‘sales” counters, 
and sold to you the next, with no trials. 
The Holmes method costs more but it pays in greater 
satisfaction with Roses that grow in Florida, because 
they've BEEN TRIED IN FLORIDA. 
Combine all the best qualities in the Roses you buy— 
Holmes Florida Culture PLUS Patented Varieties.
