W. B. CLARKE & CO. 
Growers of Quality Roses for Over 30 Years 
Our Northern California grown roses ripen early so we 
can normally ship bush and climbing roses, thoroughly 
hardened, in early December if required—a distinct ad- 
vantage to those in areas where early planting is possible. 
Grading is in accordance with A. A. N. standards and we 
are particularly careful in handling. 
Shipping. Our responsibility ceases when plants are de- 
livered to transportation company in good order, and travel at 
buyer’s risk. Please state distinctly method of shipment desired. 
Complaints must be made in writing within 10 days after 
buyer receives the goods. 
We are members of ALL AMERICA ROSE SELECTIONS 
which gives us first access to the annual All America Winners.
