TWELVE BEST TARDY ROSES, 
The twelve fine Hardy Roses named below are unequaled in their class, 
combining the greatest variety of form, richness of color and freedom of 
bloom which it is possible to get in that number. All are perfectly hardy, 
remaining out all winter without protection, and each one is delightfully 
fragrant. We offer them in three sizes. The first and second will bloom 
this year, and the third will make fine plants for next season’s flowering.
