Read about this interesting experiment 
and know why they live longer. 
In the Fall of 1948 a planting of 25 
standard hybrid tea and 25 Sub-Zero 
Roses was made. No winter protection of 
any kind was given either planting. Re- 
sults Spring 1949, after 10 to 15 below 
winter temperatures—not one standard 
hybrid tea was alive; but ALL 25 Sub- 
Zero Roses were alive and bloomed pro- 
fusely. THEY WILL EASILY STAND 15° 
below ZERO WITHOUT WINTER PRO- 
TECTION. 
Sub-Zero Roses are fine for the south too, 
because they are more resistant to mildew 
and black spot. Our heavy two-year 
plants will produce many blooms this year 
and hundreds next year. 
GOLDEN CLIMBER—One of the best 
; , Sub-Zero climbing roses. A mass of golden 
yellow, fragrant blooms in June. Very

Hardy Climbing Roses 
PAUL’S SCARLET (Climbing rose)—The most famous and 
popular red climbing rose ever introduced. The lasting 
bright crimson blooms which are produced in such profusion 
make this plant a living column of breath-taking scarlet. 
Flowers in clusters on long stems. Hardy and vigorous. Climbing roses produce just a few blooms 
the first year but hundreds the second 
year. The hardy sub-zero hybrid tea roses 
start blooming six weeks after planting. 
Prices—Climbing Roses 2 yr., No. 1 plants $1.35 each, 
3 for $3.75, 6 for $6.60. 
THE NEW DAWN—Probably the best hardy everblooming 
pink rose ever introduced. Blooms all summer like the hybrid 
tea roses. The masses of soft pink flowers are produced on 
long stems that are fine for cutting. Delightfully fragrant, 
vigorous, and very hardy. 
DOGWOODS 
CORNUS florida rubra (Red-flowering 
Dogwood)—This variety stands out among 
other ornamental trees as being one of the 
most desirable. Showy, rose-colored petals 
and the deep red foliage in the Fall con- 
spicuously distinguish it from the white Dog- 
woods, having the same ultimate height and 
good habits of growth. A combination of red- 
flowering with the white makes a beautiful 
grouping. 15 feet. 2 to 3 ff. trees, $3.75. 
CORNUS florida (White-flowering Dog- 
wood)—The rare beauty of Dogwood in 
Spring when it is white with bloom, or in 
Summer with its dark green foliage changing 
in the Fall to gorgeous reds, is hard to equal. 
It is one of the loveliest of trees. Conspicuous 
flowers, appearing early in the Spring, are 
3 to 3% inches in diameter. A Dogwood 
makes a beautiful lawn or shrub border 
specimen. 15 feet. 2 to 3 ff. trees, $2.50.
