SUMMER ROSES OUR SPECIALTY 



We are Rose specialists and are cutting from 245,000 rose plants, all in one large range of glass, 

 grown under the very best methods and skill. The advantage of buying such stock, absolutely guaranteed as 

 to quality and freshness, and brought direct from the greenhouse to our store three times per day, is that 

 we can deliver them to our customers in splendid condition. Remember, we ship you the roses the same 

 day they are cut. • 



Our Russell and Columbia are the finest for quality of any in this country. They are the best hot 

 weather flowers. Prices, 50c to $2.00 per dozen, according to length of stems.

of the most profitable varieties and is 

 said to have been in demand during 

 the recent heat wave in spite of the 

 old belief that red is not in request in 

 hot weather. Nesbit is the corsage rose. 

 Almost one-third of the place is, in 

 Bussell and some of the plants are in the 

 original soil in which they were planted 

 four years ago. A house of Columbia 

 planted in February is giving a good 

 cut. The Premier could not be planted 

 at once, flO they were put in large paper 

 pots and plunged in a vacant bench, 

 with the result that not a day's growth 

 was lost. 



Bespect for Mr. Bednberg.
