QUEEN O' THE LAKES. 
OUTSTANDING BOTANIC A ACHIEVEMENT 
These magnificent species were developed by famous Rosar- 
ian Walter D. Brownell after a lifetime of experiments and 
thousands of field trials. Hailed by the entire flower world. 
Be among the first in your area to grow these beauties. Have 
a riot of reds, pinks, yellows and oranges in your garden 
long after other gardens have quit for the winter. 
STRONGER, DEEPER ROOTS MEAN 
SUPER-HARDY, LONGER-LASTING BLOOMS! 
The secret of the Sub-Zero Rose lies in de- 
velopment of this entirely new race result- 
ing from the cross breeding of the vigorous 
Rose Wichuriana with the modern hybrid 
Tea Rose. Not only is it stronger, more vigor- 
ous, hardier above the ground—but the 
roots themselves are stronger—enable plants 
to get more food—absorb more nourishment 
for extra strength during cold winter months. 
Insure longer-lasting beauty in your garden.
