/
ee,

President of The Conard & Jones Co.

Flower-Lovers Everywhere know “West Grove for its Roses.”

9 WAS in West Grove the Rose Growing Industry had its beginning, and ’tis here, we believe,
it has reached its highest standard of perfection. It is a pleasure, therefore, to present to
our patrons a portrait of ‘‘THE PIONEER”’ who helped bring these things to pass. It was

ALFRED F. CONARD who developed the idea of sending these sturdy ‘‘ own root’’ Roses by mail.

The people soon got to know this and began ordering them from all parts of the country, so that the

business grew rapidly. This was the beginning—in 1869. The standing which the Conard & Jones Co.

now enjoy as leading American Rose Growers, needs no comment.

To-day—Mr. Conard—ripe in years of experience, happy in the realization of having nelpeds to
beautify so many thousands of homes in all parts of our country, is still the honored President of our
company, interested and active in the conduct of its business and helping to maintain that high standard
of excellence in every department which more than all else makes C. & J. Roses

‘‘THE BEST ROSES IN AMERICA.”

Rose Growing Our Specialty

Goo: 1869 the entire business career of our President (Alfred F. Conard) and Vice-President

(Antoine Wintzer) has been devoted to the Growing of Roses. They were pioneers in this
industry and as President and Superintendent respectively of their company, were the first
to grow, sell and ship ‘‘own root” roses on a large scale. In the intervening years since then
millions upon millions of sturdy young rose plants have been sent out from West Grove to all parts
of our country, and it is under the direct supervision of Mr. Wintzer and Mr. Conard that most of
‘these Roses have been grown and sold. The consequent experience and ability of these two men
were an excellent asset for the present firm which was organized and incorporated in 1897, under the
new name of The Conard & Jones Company. Our Treasurer and Secretary, S. Morris Jones and
Robert Pyle, are responsible business men representing ample capital and well known in this com-
munity. With an extensive block of new greenhouses provided with all the modern improve-
ments for heating, ventilating, etc., and with a skilled corps of young men trained under our meth-
ods, our West Grove Floral Nurseries are now established with facilities unexcelled.
N R . Prominent hybridizers know that we are on the lookout for New Roses
Cw OSES © and come to us with their novelties. Mr. Wintzer, our Vice-President,
has himself developed several, so that we are constantly having new kinds from which we select
the best for introduction. Thus, during ‘the past five years we have brought out the following
which have taken first place among the standard roses of to-day : The New Crimson Rambler
‘‘ Philadelphia,’’—(see front cover)—‘‘New Century,” ‘‘Royal Cluster,’’ ‘““May Queen,” ‘‘Ruby
Queen,’’ ‘‘Pearl Queen,’’ ‘‘Clara Barton,’’ ‘‘Sir Thos. Lipton,’’ ‘‘Magnafrano’’ and ‘‘Beauty of
Rosemawr,”’ (see index, page 46.) Wealso import each year all the prominent New Roses from
European growers, which, together with new American introductions, are quickly added to our list
as fast as they appear. These we test, keep the best, discard the rest and thus keep our assort-

ment always up to date and yet a safe one to order from.
O Ai , Rose growing is almost a hobby with us, and our constant aim is to supply
ur Im: the Best. It costs us more to grow this kind, for they require more room,
more time, more care, and everything must be done thoroughly. But the experience of a lifetime
has shown us ‘‘ HOW,”’ and we do not skimp.
When next you hear any one asking where they can get good plants, please remember these
points about C. & J. Roses. You will not find better anywhere and few so good.

Respectfully,

WEsT GROVE, Pa.,

Prices are

i ee

Two-year’ old roses, large size shrubbery, fruit
| trees, etc., are too large to mail and must be sent by express.
We recommend that customers instruct us to ship smaller
sized plants also by express,whenin ourjudgment it is best to
doso. Wecansend larger plants this way and can leave most of
the earth on roots, which is of course much better for our cus-
tomers. Express Charges must be paid by the pur-
chaser, unless otherwise agreed. But we are careful to pack
| as light as safety of the plants will permit and add as many
| extras as we can afford to help cover charges and since the
| expressage on plants, bulbs, etc., is now 20% less than regular
merchandise rates, the cost of sending goods in this way, even
to distant points, is quite reasonable.

The Cost of Express Charges

you can estimate quite closely with the following schedule.
Use the rate named for the town nearest you and count the
weight of two-year old plants when packed ready to express
about as follows: 12 plants=15 |lbs.; 25 plants=80 Ibs.; 125
plants=100lbs.; plants one year old 20 to 301bs. per 100 plants.

Express Charges to the following Points are as follows:

West of the Rocky Mountains, the express rate on
plants is from 10 to 12 cts. per lb.; but charges when prepaid
are only 8 cts. per lb. To save themselves unnecessary
expense, therefore, we recommend customers living in that
section to remit with their order sufficient money to prepay
express. If you send too much we will refund the difference
at once.

NEW HARDY HYBRID RUGOSA ROSE

ORIGINATED AND INTRODUCED BY THE CONARD & JONES CO., ROSE GROWERS, WEST GROVE, PA.

Tue NEW HYBRID ~
_ RUGOSA ROSE ©

SSOP TRIRATBE BY THE CONARO & MOWER COMERWY, IOS:

SIR THOMAS LIPTON

E have had this spiendid rose on trial for several years, and now take pleasure in recommending it as the finest

Pure White Hybrid Rugosa Rose yet produced. It is a strong vigorous grower, making a handsome bush,

4to 5 feet high, well covered with bright glossy green leaves, which shine as if varnished. The flowers are 8 to 4

inches across, perfectly double and pure snow white. They are very fragrant and borne on strong upright stems all

through the growing season. It is one of the Hardiest Roses in existence, and therefore particularly valuable for planting

in cold climates and exposed localities where other roses do not thrive. It does well everywhere and can be depended on to

make a strong handsome bush and produce plenty of large double pure white roses for several months every season. It is espe-

cially recommended for yard, park and cemetery planting, because of its handsome appearance, perfect hardiness and entire

freedom from insects, rust-and disease. It is undoubtedly the Finest Pure White Hardy Hybrid Rugosa Rose yet pro-
duced, and is certain to be a standard variety for many years to come.

New Hardy Iron Clad

Ever-Blooming Rose
NEW CENTURY

HIS Magnificent New Rose is the result of a cross
between the lovely Ever-Blooming Rose Clotilde
Soupert and the Hardy Rosa Rugosa Alba; it
originated here and was sent out by us with a beauti-

ful colored plate which attracted wide attention, and it
immediately took its place as a first-class standard variety.
It is perfectly hardy and blooms at short intervals all
through the Summer and Fail. The flowers are 8 to 4 inches
across, perfectly full and double and borne in elegant clus-
ters. The color is clear flesh pink with bright red centre
and having allthe petals widely bordered with fine creamy
white ; it is very sweet and has the delightful fragrance of
the wild rose or sweet briar. It has been called the
‘‘Tron Clad” Ever-Blooming Rose, for besides being
perfectly hardy it is entirely free from the attacks of insects,
rust or blight, and is a real iron-clad continuous blooming
rose, entirely different from the old ever-blooming varieties,
and having a different style of beauty. It sailed bo planted
in good rich ground and kept well manured to induce vigor-
ous growth and continuous bloom.

Quick-Blooming Roses, as offered in the fol-

lowing list. They are especially selected early-
flowering varieties, grown last season and kept dormant over
Winter, and then repotted in larger size pots, which makes
stout, stocky plants with an abundance of strong working
roots, in best possible condition for vigorous growth and
quick bloom. They should be planted as early as possible
after the frost is out; rough weather will not hurt them, and
the earlier they are planted the quicker and better they will
bloom. There are no roses equal to these for quick and Sat-

isfactory bloom.

They cost a little more than the ordinary size, but are worth twice the
difference, and are sent postpaid by mail at the pricesstated. They are
so hardy and vigorous you cannot easily kill them or keep them from

THE FAMOUS OLD

YORK and LANCASTER ROSE

HIS is a remarkable old English variety, dating back hundreds of years to what

was known as the Wars of the Roses in England, when the two warring fac-
_ tions were distinguished in battle by the color of the Roses they wore in their
Hats, the bright Red Roses representing one party, and the Pure White Roses the
other; these wars lasted for years, and when peace was made, the two parties were
united, and the Red and White became the National Colors of England. The York
and Lancaster Rose belongs to the Centifolia class, and is noted for its perfect hardi-
ness and delightful fragrance; also for its beautifully variegated flowers, which are
large and double and elegantly striped with deep crimson and pure white. It is so
difficult to propagate we can only offer a limited supply of strong two-year plants.

HARDY HYDrid Perpetual ROSCS caatiued

HE Hybrid Perpetuals are considered the most valuable of all roses, because they bear the largest,
sweetest and most brilliant colored flowers, and are’so hardy and vigorous they live over Winter
without protection, and continue to bloom regularly from year to year, Their grand flowers are

of all shades of red, crimson, scarlet, pink
and white, but no yellows. They thrive and
bloom finely in all sections of the country
and should generally be planted in
open ground, as but few varieties are
suitable for house culture. Some
kinds do not bloom till the second
year, but when fully established
bloom regularly at the usual
time, and occasionally during
the Summer and Fall months.

Though called ‘‘ Perpetual,”’
they are not constant 27S

bloomers but are the finest
and most beautiful of all
Hardy Roses.

We offer the choicest and
most Beautiful Varieties in
Cultivation,and send Strong,
Healthy Plants from 2%
and 3-inch Pots all on their
own roots. Persons who or=
der at the single rate may
select to value of 15 cts. ad=

Two Year Old Dormant Perpetual Roses

(IMPORTED)

S there is increasing demand for large dormant field-grown roses for Fall and early Spring
planting, we offer herewith, in addition to our own growing of C. & J. ROSES, a very
choice stock of Imported Hardy Perpetuals. They are large thrifty bushes, 2 to 4 feet
high, just the kind you want to make a fine appearance and bloom quickly. They have

given splendid satisfaction wherever tried, and we are sure will please you. PRICE, 40 cts.

each. Set of 12 varieties for $3.50, packed to express here.

These large imported roses are not grown on their own roots, but are budded or grafted and should,
NOTIC therefore, be planted sufficiently deep to place the junction of the root and graft, three to four inches below

the surface. When this is done, wild shoots will not often start from the root, and if they do, the growth
and foliage are so different from the true variety that it will quickly be seen and should be cut out down to the root at once,
The varieties listed herewith are among the very best for this climate, and so entirely hardy they can safely be planted in the
Fall, as long as ground continues open, or in the Spring, as soon as frost is out. Rough weather will not hurt them, and the
earlier they are planted the better, so they can get a good start made before hot weather. We give purchasers their choice of
varieties as far as possible, but if all the kinds asked for cannot be given, request permission to put in other similar sorts of equal
value without further instructions, and always guaranteeing full satisfaction in every way. NOWH—We never send budded
roses unless specially asked for, and when they require it, always cut them back to proper height for planting before shipment,
unless otherwise directed. As this stock is limited and we can get no more this season, it is important to order as early as pos-
sible. Orders will be ‘illed in strict rotation as long as stock lasts. (See list of leading varieties below and descriptions
in index.)

CANNA LILIES

If our grandmothers could see our Modern Canna Lilies they would throw up their hands 1n admi-
ration, for instead of the old-fashioned flowerless Canna which they loved on account of its leaves, we now
have plants with the same handsome foliage, but with, also, great masses of large lily-like flowers—
gorgeously beautiful. That is why we call our newer kinds Cazza Lilies instead of just Cannas.

‘¢KING OF BEDDING PLANTS’”’ is a title they have, and richly deserve. They begin to bloom
by the end of June and never stop tillfrost. The flowers are a veritable blaze of color in every shade imagi-
nable (except blue) and either plain, dappled, edged, striped or variegated. Plants range in sizes from
2% to 7 feet high with foliage of green or bronze often striped like some rare tropical plant. So you see
they are suitable for planting in beds of all possible shapes and sizes or for placing along fences, walls,
porches or driveways, for screens, hedges and border plants.. (See our Suggestions, page 135.) They
grow most anywhere, but do best in rich soil. We send full cultural directions with every order and also tell
you how to keep the roots over Winter. Canna Lilies ordered early should be started indoors. Plant out
when the ground is warm (say May 10th in this latitude). Easy to grow and multiply rapidly. Try some.

A BED OF C. & J, CANNA LILIES IN FRONT OF THE AGRICULTURAL BUILDING AT THE WORLD’S FAIR

We Originate New Canna Lilies. During the past ten years, our Vice-

President, Mr. Wintzer (who is well
known as a skilled hybridizer and grower of roses) has originated by scientific ‘‘crossing’’ and
‘“‘recrossing’’ of the Canna flowers, more new varieties than we can count. Each year we have made
careful selection from these ‘‘seedlings’’ and have introduced to the American people about 60 new and
distinctly improved sorts. These C. & J. varieties represent the highest type of up-to-date Canna excel-
lence: the largest and finest flowers—the greatest variety and brilliancy of colors and the kinds best
constituted to stand the trying conditions of our American climate. ‘‘ People who know”’ recognize this
and come to us for stock. To-day we are looked upon as Headquarters for High Grade Canna Lilies.

At the Louisiana Purchase Exposition held at St. Louis Last Summer, we had an
extensive exhibit of Canna Lilies as did also other prominent firms from this country and Europe. The
Exposition authorities did the planting in regular St. Louis soil without extra coddling or care. Our cus-
tomers and friends returning from the Exposition reported that ‘‘The Conard & Jones Co.’s flower beds
were the most magnificent display of bright flowering plants on the 1200 acres of ground!’ The judges
were unanimous in awarding: ‘*THE GRAND PRIZE (highest possible award and the only
Grand Prize given Cannas) to THE CONARD & JONES COMPANY, WEST GROVE, PA.”
It is wholly because of the quality of our stock that judges, experts and customers agree that
“<C. & J. CANNA LILIES are best in the world.’’ You should have some on your lawn. =

Snowy White Canna MONT BLANC

MONT BLANC was introduced by us in 1902 and is to-day by all odds the finest white Canna in commerce; in fact,
there is no other variety that can compare with it. It has a vigorous constitution, blooms early and continuously in the
greatest profusion during the whole growing season. Its foliage is bright glossy green, very large and handsome, and so
thick and leathery it is not often injured by rain or wind. It is a strong-growing variety, and will produce from
fifteen to twenty flower stalks in a season. Its great masses of snowy-white blossoms contrast finely with the splendid |
crimson and pink varieties, making the most gorgeous and showy flower beds for the lawn or garden it is possible to have.

Hardy English or Large-Flowered Clematis

NOTE —The Large-Flowered or Hardy English Clematis are considered the most beautiful of all
our Flowering Vines. The flowers are large, often measuring four to six inches across and are borne in
great wreaths and clusters during July and August. The colors range from rich, royal purple to pearly-
white. The vines’are of slender, wiry growth and require some support that they can twine around, like
arod, pole or wire, and if the location is somewhat moist and partially shaded, so much the better; the
north side of the house or porch is often the best place for them; hardy, but a mulch of leaves or litter
around the roots, at least the first season, will be an advantage.

Hardy Perennials make them especially useful as cut flowers. They are also equally valuable for
adding brightness and color to the border beds, and a comparatively small collection will enable you to

down the weeds and if you find any plants inclined to sprawl, put in a stake for support. After the first

of half rotted manure (this will both protect the plants and enrich the ground); dig this under in the

Spring, before new growth starts.

Splendid New SWEET PEAS

O's Splendid New Sweet Peas are the prettiest and most satisfactory flowers you can have. They

grow easily and bloom very quickly. We offer the sweetest and most beautiful varieties in exist-

ence, at very little prices. They do well everywhere ; bloom abundantly and give delightful
pleasure to ‘all. The flowers last a long time after cutting, and are highly prized for house and table
decoration. They should be planted in liberal quantity. We sell in any quantity desired, by the packet,
ounce or pound, and hope to have your orders this season.

THE CULTURE IS VERY SIMPLE —Plant the seed three or four inches deep in the most convenient place you happen
to have, very early in the Spring—just as early as possible, February, March, April or May, according to the season and
locality. Keep the ground loose and mellow, give the young plants good support to climb on—wire netting, twine or brush.
Keep the flowers picked off clean every day as fast as they open (this is very important), and they will bloom abundantly
for many weeks. No flowers are easier to grow or more certain to give satisfaction.

_ When Setting Out Strawberry Plants be careful not to let the roots get dry. It is a good plan to dip the roots
in water, taking care not to wet the crowns, and then “‘ heel” in moist shady ground until you are ready to plant.
Press the earth down firmly on the roots, so as to exclude the air and hot drying winds. This is very important.

THE WONDERFUL

NEW LOGAN BERRY

(BLACKBERRY RASPBERRY)

This grand new berry originated in California but has been tested here for several years. It
makes a strong vigorous bush, and is quite hardy unless in very exposed situations where slight protec-
tion may be advisable. It seems to be a true Hybrid between the Raspberry and Blackberry, partaking
of the nature of both in quality and appearance but of finer and more delightful flavor. The berries are
the size of the largest BLACKBERRIES and of a rich dark purple red, entirely different and much
larger than any other Blackberry. It bears abundantly, the fruit has very few seeds, ripens early before
blackberries, and is of such superior quality for cooking and eating that it has brought four times the
price of other berries in market. It is well worthy of careful trial by every one interested in New Fruits,
as It is very handsome and entirely different from all other berry fruits. 15 cts. each, 2 for 25 cts.;
$1.00 per dozen, postpaid. $6.00 per hundred, by express. Two-year plants, 20 cents each,

GRASS SEED

Cc. & J. VELVET GREEN LAWN

The best brand for seeding down new
lawns ‘and renovating old ones

ye he

f appearance.

“UR VELVET GREEN LAWN GRASS SEED is not excelled by any for producing a smooth, even,
¥ velvety-green sward that will withstand drought and hard usage, and always makes a handsome
In seeding down a lawn or grass plot, three things are necessary to insure success:
First, to prepare the ground so as to have a fine, smooth seedbed; second, to put on plenty of seed;

never less, but rather more than the directions call for; third, to start the lawn-mow*r as soon as the weeds
(which are always in the ground and sure to start first) are tall enough to catch, and keep them mowed off close
till the grass has time to start and become well established. The seed should be lightly raked in and finished

with a roller.

Apply any good commercial fertilizer as a top-dressing when needed. One quart of seed is
enough for three hundred square feet (fifteen by twenty feet), or at the rate of five bushels to the acre.

Lawns

should be kept neatly mowed, which induces a clean, even growth of fresh lively green.

Price by mail, postpaid 25 cts. per quart; two quarts for 45 cts.; in bulk,
purchaser paying express charges $1.25 per peck; $4.00 per bushel of 20 lbs.

LOUISIANA is a vigorous grower, producing a thick mass of glossy green 1’
foliage ; each leaf edged with a narrow purple band. But its crowning glory is
in its flowers; ; they are like beautiful: orchids; size, often more than 7 inches |
across and every inch a vivid scarlet. (Our artist admits, there is no paint

-made can match it.) Imagine a plant 7 feet high, having four or five main

‘stems and each one covered with flowers like that shown on the back cover

Its intense brilliancy and beauty are indescribable. The only way you can get a

LOR a gorgeous display of the most brilliant colors all Summer long and until late Fall, there is
nothing can equal the Canna; and there is no way in which Cannas can be more effectively

and satisfactorily used than when planted together in large rows or beds. As sizes range from fag

2 to 6 ft, and colors include some 40 different shades, it is important to select for this purpose
kinds that look best together. For the convenience of our customers, therefore, we here offer a few
carefully chosen collections. For the size and price of beds named, we believe the arrangements we
suggest will produce the finest effects in Canna: beds it is possible to obtain. Plant any of these |
combinations and you will be surprised and delighted with the result. Full directions “HOW TO

PLANT” will be sent with each order. (For: 50 or more other kinds, see pages 48 to 54.) j
