 6N BRIER STOCKS. 



FOR the fourth time we offer dor- 

 mant Roses; this is to satisfy 

 a demand from many custom- 

 ers for plants that can be planted 

 outside early in Spring, before it is 

 safe to set out plants that are grow- 

 ing in pots, and consequently are 

 in full leaf. The illustration shows 

 the character of the plants we supply 

 also the method of planting and prun- 

 ing them after being planted. We can 

 supply these from the time this catalogue 

 is issued up to April rjt/i ; after that time 

 they can only be supplied from pots, at the 

 prices quoted at the end of the list. If planted as shown in the illustration, 

 these Roses, although budded, will emit roots where the true Rose joins the 

 Brier stock, and will eventually become established on their own roots. The 

 great value of these budded Roses lies in the fact that they produce better 

 flowers and make stronger plants in a shorter period than those grown from 

 cuttings ; and the advantage is that having no soil on the roots and bei7ig 

 dormant, they are of little weight and can be sent cheaply by express. Buy 

 early and store in cellar until ground is ready.
