Descriptive Catalogue Of Select Roses For 1888 PDF Download

Excerpt from A Descriptive Catalogue of Select Roses, for 1889 The plants which we offer of the hardy sorts are dormant from the open ground, one or two years old on own roots or one year old budded on the Manetti. Where the stock of certain varieties consists nearly or wholly of budded plants, it is so stated. In case nothing is said, it is to be inferred that the plants are on their own roots. A correct understanding of this point will save much inconvenience to all concerned. Varieties belonging to the tender classes are growing in four and five-inch pots, unless otherwise stated. Since the last edition of this Catalogue was issued, we have had under trial many new varieties, but our experience thus far does not justify us in placing but a few of them in the catalogue. We have omitted from the Catalogue several kinds, which, after a thorough trial, appear to be unworthy of a place.
