Greetings Fa All Our Gucndand CL nee 
Another planting season is upon us, and we have pleasure in 
presenting our 1954 catalogue, in which you will find offered an ex- 
cellent listing of top-grade plants in the older favorites, collected 
from all parts of the world by the late Lambertus C. Bobbink, as well 
as a great number of the newer introductions. Herein are many 
varieties suitable not only for beds, borders and foundation plantings 
but also for cutting. By careful selection of varieties, flowers may be 
cut for home decoration from early spring until frost. 
Here at Bobbink & Atkins during the past year we have greatly 
enlarged our facilities for local garden lovers, by the building and 
equipping of a new Garden Center with ample parking space. If 
you live within driving distance, you will find many items of interest 
here at East Rutherford. On the other hand, if you are one of the 
many thousands of customers who live at a distance, we shall be 
happy to ship our quality plants to you. 
We have available large selections of top-quality AZALEAS, 
RHODODENDRONS, EVERGREENS, ROSES, PERENNIALS, TREES 
AND SHRUBS. 
We are glad indeed to have had the opportunity of serving so 
many of our old friends this past year, and furnishing our products 
to a great number of new customers. Visitors are always welcome.

Mm 4U-Ameica ROSE SELECTIONS 
In a constant endeavor to raise Rose standards to an even higher peak of perfection, a group 
| of nationally known Rose nurserymen founded in 1938 an organization known as All-America 
: Rose Selections, Inc. There are now twenty-six test gardens from coast to coast, where impartial 
Rose experts judge and award points to new varieties over a period of at least two years. 
Thousands of varieties have been tested, the most promising have been carefully scored accord- 
ing to their merits and finally selected for the highest and most coveted distinction in rosedom, 
i.e. an A.A.R.S. award. Since the founding of this organization many awards have been made 
and all the varieties on these two pages have been so honored.
