Two Year Old Dormant Perpetual Roses 
(IMPORTED) 
S there is increasing demand for large dormant field-grown roses for Fall and early Spring 
planting, we offer herewith, in addition to our own growing of C. & J. ROSES, a very 
choice stock of Imported Hardy Perpetuals. They are large thrifty bushes, 2 to 4 feet 
high, just the kind you want to make a fine appearance and bloom quickly. They have 
given splendid satisfaction wherever tried, and we are sure will please you. PRICE, 40 cts. 
each. Set of 12 varieties for $3.50, packed to express here. 
These large imported roses are not grown on their own roots, but are budded or grafted and should, 
NOTIC therefore, be planted sufficiently deep to place the junction of the root and graft, three to four inches below 
the surface. When this is done, wild shoots will not often start from the root, and if they do, the growth 
and foliage are so different from the true variety that it will quickly be seen and should be cut out down to the root at once, 
The varieties listed herewith are among the very best for this climate, and so entirely hardy they can safely be planted in the 
Fall, as long as ground continues open, or in the Spring, as soon as frost is out. Rough weather will not hurt them, and the 
earlier they are planted the better, so they can get a good start made before hot weather. We give purchasers their choice of 
varieties as far as possible, but if all the kinds asked for cannot be given, request permission to put in other similar sorts of equal 
value without further instructions, and always guaranteeing full satisfaction in every way. NOWH—We never send budded 
roses unless specially asked for, and when they require it, always cut them back to proper height for planting before shipment, 
unless otherwise directed. As this stock is limited and we can get no more this season, it is important to order as early as pos- 
sible. Orders will be ‘illed in strict rotation as long as stock lasts. (See list of leading varieties below and descriptions 
in index.)
