Here's Why You Get 
Extra Value When You 
Buy Henry Field Roses 
When our Roses come in from 
the field, we separate them into 
three grades: 
1. Select Two-year No. 1 
2. Standard Two-year Medium 
3. Light (not for sale) 
Now most nurseries make 4 
| grades, the other one being Jum- 
bo XX, the largest ones, a pre- 
mium grade, and they sell them

Henry Field's "GARDEN-FRESH" 
Potted Roses Reach You Green, 
Growing, and Usually in Bud 
Why waste a month waiting for 
dormant plants to start growing and 
coming into bloom? Now you can 
get Henry Field’s pot-grown roses in 
full leaf and bud, even a bloom here 
and there, as shown in these actual 
pictures taken here at the Seedhouse 
last spring. 
Henry Field’s ‘‘Garden-Fresh’”’ 
| potted roses are two-year-old Select 
Grade rose plants grown in a pot 
filled with a pre-fertilized growing 
media, not dirt. 
You can plant them any time after 
danger of frost is over, from late 
spring way through the summer. If 
you can’t get them planted right 
away, they keep right on growing in 
their own pot. (Of course, remove 
the tarred paper pot when you do 
put the plant in the ground.) They 
are easier to plant and practically 
eliminate any loss in planting. 
You get a longer blooming season 
because they start giving you blooms 
practically from the day you plant 
them right up to freezing time in the 
fall. 
These plants will be shipped to you 
by parcel post (we pay the postage 
right to your door) after danger of 
late frost in your area is passed. 
Therefore, you probably will receive 
them as a separate package. 
These potted roses are the result of 
several years of painstaking research 
on our part. We have grown them 
and planted them under all sorts of 
conditions and they give perfect sat- 
isfaction. Last year, thousands of 
for a premium price—1.35 or 
more apiece. We put the Jumbo 
XX sizes right in with the “Se- 
lect Two-year No. 1” grade. Our 
regular Select Two-year No. 1 
grade complies absolutely with 
the Horticultural Standard of 
The American Association of 
Nurserymen, of which we are a 
member. But by throwing this 
premium grade in at no extra 
cost to you, you get a bargain, 
over and above standard grading 
requirements. That’s the good old 
Henry Field policy of giving ex- 
tra value. 
Your Henry Field “Garden- 
al Fresh” rose comes to you 
well packed in a heavy card- 
board container that covers pot, 
stems, leaves and all. When you 
unwrap the package, you take out 
a live plant, heavy rooted, green 
leafed, and usually in bud or 
blooming, like the above. 
our customers bought them and 
were happy with them.
