EVERBLOOMING 
ROSES AS TO COLOR 
Imagine getting, fine, heavy, 
field grown everblooming roses 
at our new low sale prices. The 
Roses that we fill your order 
with are genuine everblooming 
varieties, same as we listed in 
our 1951 catalog, only you order 
by color instead of variety. You 
order and select the color and we 
select the variety. We do this 
because we often have a surplus 
of certain varieties, therefore, 
this plan avoids waste for us and 
results in a big saving to you if 
you are not interested in names. 
We offer red, pink, yellow, 
two-toned and white.

POLYANTHA OR DWARF ROSES 
Strong 2-year Field Grown Bushes, 
each $1.00; 5 for $4.50. 
Polyantha Roses are so desirable because their 
uses are almost limitless. Brilliant beds along the 
drive or walk, edgings for other plantings or grown 
as specimen plants here and there about the garden, 
their brilliantly colored blooms give an air of gaiety 
from early summer until late fall. Plant them 12 
to 15 inches apart for edgings, 18 to 24 inches apart 
in beds. Good ordinary soil is all that they require, 
but keep well watered the first season after planting 
and at any other time when dry weather demands it. 
Extremely hardy, they will last for years after once 
established. Trim back each spring to about 6 inches 
above the ground. :

bout 4 feet.

LOST LABEL ROSES 
Each year we have a few bunches of Everblooming 
Rose Bushes where the labels have been broken off 
and lost, so we do not know the variety. This special 
lot of roses are all good varieties, first, class plants, 
but without labels as to variety. While this special lot 
of EVERBLOOMING ROSES lasts we offer them to
