— — ^^^— "^— '"^^— — mail, but must go by express, and the purchaser pays the express 

 charges ; but we are careful to pack as light as the safety of the plants will permit, and always add as 

 many extras as we can afford, to help pay the charges. All our express shipments are billed through at 

 the special 20 per cent, reduction allowed on plants, so that the charges are now very reasonable. 



Two-year Roses weigh when packed about as follows : 12 plants, 20 pounds ; 25 plants, 35 pounds ; 

 50 plants, 50 pounds ; 100 plants, 75 pounds. This includes the earth left on roots, which is quite neces- 

 sary to Roses of this size ; if all the earth is shaken off the plants may be hard to start and slow to bloom, 

 and this is one of the reasons why Two-year Roses should always be sent by express when convenient. 



PLEASE NOTICE : All our Two-year Roses are grown in pots, on their own roots, and are fine 

 thrifty plants, 12 to 15 inches high, ready for immediate bloom.
