Why buy Dormant Roses? 
_ Dormant means sleeping. Unfortunately many sleep- 
ing roses never wake up. They may have dried out and 
died, or they may be too sleepy to ever start growing. 
Forbes Pot-Grown Roses are Awake! 
Bursting with life before you buy them, they have 
been awake and growing for weeks. We discard the 
sleepy heads. Forbes Pot-Grown Roses are best for you 
because all are the largest, strongest bushes (not mail 
order size) grown specially for us under ideal conditions 
by the leading rose grower of the northwest. We start 
them in 7x 9-inch pots, to give ample room for the 
heavy root systems to develop, and grow them on out- 
doors just as nature fatender They cost slightly more 
than dormant roses but are well worth it, and are easily 
planted in your garden without setback. The varieties 
are the finest available. See pages 24 to 27.
