SPRING PLANTING IS BEST FOR ROSES 
Most of the rose experts in this country, those who really know 
roses, agree that better results are obtained from Spring planting. 
We are continually receiving letters and comments from many 
pleased customers who have realized for the first time the great 
advantages of planting their roses in the Spring rather than in the 
Fall. Why worry about providing Winter protection for new plants 
when you can achieve better results by planting our big husky 
top grade bushes in the Spring. 
They are extra heavy because they have been growing vigor- 
ously for 3 months longer than roses offered for Fall planting. A 
short time after you set them out they will burst into glorious fra- 
grant bloom. The following Winter the problem of protection be- 
comes much simpler because the plants are fully established. Roses 
for Fall planting must be dug while still in foliage, and the wood 
is very naturally soft and unripened and these Fall planted bushes 
suffer severe Winter damage and are often killed entirely in colder 
sections. 
Hence, we strongly urge you to buy and plant your new bushes 
in the Spring, and as early as it is possible to work the ground.
