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 varieties chosen 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 various brands of 
packaged plants. Because of numerous requests for comparison of our brands with AAN (American Associa- 
tion of Nurserymen) standards, the following is noted. There is no comparable grade of our Silver Seal. 
Only the heaviest and most select plants with a minimum 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 1% grade. Plants in our RCS 
are 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 packeged). Our cold storage and shipping facilities are unex- 
celled and enable us to make shipment of good strong plants in the best of condition anytime from Ist of Octo- 
ber to Ist of May. Write for our special price and variety list.

SHIPPING SEASON: Fall planting normally can be accomplished any time after October Ist and since fall 
is the best time of year for planting in the South, more and more customers are purchasing their plants at 
that time. Stores are advised to take advantage of this trend and increase their plant sales by ordering ship- 
ments for October and November. Weather conditions permitting, our shipping season starts October Ist and 
shipments can be made anytime thereafter. Also, because of our cold storage facilities, shipments can be ex- 
tended through April thus increasing the length of the selling season.
