The roses presented in this catalog are from 
the finest California rose stock available. Each 
plant has been carefully tended from the time 
the root cutting was set out in the nursery 
until it was dug. Two entire years were re- 
quired to grow our roses to the perfection 
desired by our customers. We are proud of 
them.
