R68-6-3. Labeling

A. In order to identify nursery stock properly, whenever it is shipped, delivered, or transported to any purchaser, at least one label bearing the name, origin (state grown or propagated), size, variety, and grade (where applicable) shall be attached to each separate species or variety.

B. Whenever a grade or size designation is used or implied in labeling or in an advertisement referring to a kind of nursery stock for which grades or sizes have been established in these rules, the nursery stock so labeled or so advertised shall conform to the specifications of the particular grade or size as stated herein. Advertisements of such stock offered for sale in containers shall state plant grade or size, irrespective of the size of the container.

C. Non-established container stock shall be so identified by a water resistant tag on which the words "non-established container stock" are printed. The tags shall be not less than 2 x 4 inches in size with lettering of 24 point Gothic type. The minimum length of time the stock has been planted in the container or the date the stock was planted in the container must also be stated on the tag. The tag shall bear only the required labeling. It shall be the responsibility of the supplier of non-established container stock to adequately label such stock as provided herein.

D. All roses shall be labeled by grade for individual plants, bundles, or single lots.
