Gentlemen: 
In making a report on the planting of 50 Thor, 
Horvath Roses, the Riverview Garden Club wishes 
me to express their appreciation of its excellent 
behavior. The Roses have been satisfactory in 
every respect. The plants are sturdy and are 
vigcrous growers with long stems, having clusters 
of from three to seven flowers on each stem, 
making a gorgeous display of vivid color. 
That meets all the requirements for roadside 
and parkway planting and we are happy to rec- 
ommend their use and your splendid service in 
supplying them.
