Rosa. 
Few flower-lovers are aware that one of the most interesting plants to grow 
from the seed is the rose. The young tea-roses frequently bloom from the 
seed in three months, but it is better to pinch off the buds and not allow the 
plant to bloom until it has attained some size. Tea or Monthly, all sorts, 
mixed, 10 cts. per pkt. WRINKLED LEAF Rose, RuGosa ALBA and RUBRA, 
each, 10 ects. per pkt.; mixed, 10 cts. per pkt.

The most brilliant scarlet bedding plant known; fine also for pot-plants.

GIANT PERFECTION—Too much cannot be said in praise of my Giant 
Perfection Stocks. All who have ever seen them bloom are delighted with 
them. Their growth is strong, and the magnificent spikes of very large 
double flowers are superb. The colors are white, old rose, mauve pink, straw, 
purple, red and flesh. They are fine bloomers, and give 85 per cent double 
flowers. Each color separate, 10 cts.; mixed, 5 cts.; one pkt. each, 90 ets.
