Come to See the Beautiful Hillsdate 
AND MEIN@NeiiniEeLOVELY ROSES 
Cimepine ROSES, planted at 
the base of rustic posts interlocked 
with chains, form an appropriate 
boundary for our sales gardens. 
Here we maintain a stock of hy- 
brid tea, polyantha and climbing 
roses of many colors and varieties. 
All plants are potted and ready 
for immediate delivery and easy 
transplanting. This garden is a 
profusion of color as beautiful 
as our Exhibition Garden, with 
its information booth and drinking 
fountain constructed of field stone 
and rough hewed timbers. 
In the background may be 
seen an entrance to our rock 
garden with an informal lily pool 
in a natural setting of plants in 
real harmony with their environ- 
ment.

In the formal garden, a beau- 
tifully fashioned stone terrace 
against a backdrop of rich green 
foliage forms the center piece. 
This garden features a symphony 
of color in the form of beds of 
annuals and perennials in har- 
mony with low-growing polyantha 
and floribunda Roses arranged ina 
symmetrical pattern with close- 
trimmed hedges and evergreens. 
In this beautiful setting the Rose 
Queen is crowned, surrounded 
by the lovely ladies of her court 
in formal gowns. 
Our swimming pool is a pleas- 
ant mirror of blue water in a 
frame of colorful stone, with loung- 
ing and diving platforms above 
the pool. Surrounding it are 
specimen Colorado blue spruce 
and other coniferous and ever- 
green trees. Here at the pool 
much of our entertainment takes 
place during festival time. Grace- 
ful diving exhibitions, swimming 
pageant and water ballet are all 
in keeping with the occasion. The 
Rose Queen candidates parade 
here on the edge of the poo! with 
the crystal clear surface reflecting 
the pastel tones of their gowns. 
In full bloom, our Exhibition Rose 
Gardens are a scene to lighten 
the hearts of all observers. Beds 
of solid color are grown here 
to test their adaptability to 
the rigors of this climate. En- 
closed by continuous arches of 
climbing roses, this garden pre- 
sents a panorama of color. In the 
foreground, the symmetrical de- 
sign of our Formal Garden features 
annuals and perennials, as well 
as low-growing roses. In the 
background, a windbreak of Colo- 
rado blue spruce adds its majestic 
form and color to our picture. 
Along the sidelines stands an 
arboretum of both flowering and 
rich-foliaged shrubs and flowering 
trees.
