Field-grown Roses 



Hardy — Vigorous — Strongly Rooted 



We grow roses on contract — giving 

 you your own selection of all stand- 

 ard and new varieties at very low 

 prices. 



Our roses are all budded on genuine 

 Manetti stock — and grown in the 

 open field. They are especially 

 adapted to potting or outdoor plant- 

 ing. 



Roses from our nursery have been 



shipped all over the United States 

 and always arrive in first-class con- 

 dition. We ship by express or 

 combined with other orders and 

 shipped by Refrigerator Service. 

 By this latter method, transpor- 

 tation cost is reduced to the mini- 

 mum. 



Send your budding list for quotation. 

 Our roses are ready for shipment 

 from October 1 on.

St. Valentine's day ofiferinga. Golden 

 baskets with spring flowers were much 

 in favor. 



The Art Floral Co. broke all records 

 of business previously transacted, most 

 of the demand being for St. Valentine's 

 ■day baskets and bouquets. A brilliantly 

 illuminated map in one of the windows 

 emphasized the telegraph service for 

 valentines. 



Joseph's reported a wonderful St. 

 V alentine 's day business.

Pelicano, Rossi & Co. have been busy 

 with weddings, especially the Counter- 

 Oswald marriage, which was decorated, 

 colonial style, in pastel-colored spring 

 flowers. 



Podesta & Baldocchi report a remark- 

 able demand for their floral hats. These 

 near-Panama hats are painted in bril- 

 liant colors, tied with handsome ribbons 

 and filled with flowers. Victor L. 

 Podesta is now receiving many of the 



art objects which he recently purchased 

 in Italy, among them being beautiful 

 specimens of Venetian glass vases which 

 he picked out at the factory, at Moreno. 

 These include vases of colored glass, 

 superimposed on white glass. The vases 

 are cut to show the two colors, with gold 

 and silver effects and, on some of them, 

 raised flowers. Not one was broken in 

 transit.
