SIMMER ROSES 



We make a specialty of growing Roses best adapted to handling during the hot weather. Our 

 facilities are exceptionally well equipped, and we recommend the following stock for summer: 



New Beauties in medium and short stems 

 Rhea Reid — the best red rose 

 Mrs. Russell — the best pink rose 



Sunburst — the best yellow rose 



Double White Killarney — the best White rose 



Ophelia — Shawyer 



Then, in addition, we have the regular varieties of Roses in large quantities, receiving them direct 

 from the greenhouses within a few hours of being cut, which enables us to fill all orders with strictly 

 fresh stock. This is the great advantage of buying direct of the grower.
