‘Delegates from American Association of Nurserymen Visiting Our Rose Fields July 1928

c T V3 —W*7>

TRADE PRICE LIST CALIFORNIA BUDDED ROSES

JUNE • 1929

California field-grown roses lead in qual¬ ity and robust habit of growth because grown under ideal conditions of soil and climate in the open field.

Especially is this true of roses grown in the even temperate region of the San Francisco Bay territory in which Niles is situated. Our roses commence growing about the middle of March and grow vigorously un¬ til July 15th; having attained their size by that time we proceed to harden them

up so as to have them fully matured for digging in November. At this time we can depend upon frost making them thoroughly dormant. Shipping begins in the early part of December.

Every care is taken to properly grade, pack and ship so that they will reach our cus¬ tomers in good condition.

By careful selection we have included the best of both old and new varieties, yet kept the number of varieties as low as possible.

The car lot rate to most eastern points is $1.8 7/4 per 100 pounds.
