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.

Shipping Information
During the shipping season we have carloads of roses going to many eastern points. In some
cases we can make up pool cars and thereby secure low freight rates for our customers. The
minimum carload weight is 18,000 pounds to Chicago; for points farther east the minimum
weight is 20,000. About 40,000 roses can be loaded in a car. The car lot rate to most eastern
points is $1.8 7/4 per 100 pounds.
Our No. 1 grade roses packed for L.C.L. freight weigh about 50 pounds per 100. Express ship¬
ments are packed slightly lighter.
