WE AEE LEADING ROSE 

 GROWERS and claim to grow '*The 

 Best Roses in America." Roses are our great 

 specialty. We grow them by the hundreds of thou- 

 sands, and offer in our Spring Guide, issued in Jan- 

 uary, all the newest and choicest varieties in one, 

 two, and three-year sizes, but in this, our Autumn 

 Guide, we offer a short list of the best Pot Roses 

 for Winter bloom in the house or conser- 

 vatory. On the two pages following is a 

 selection of the finest two and three-year 

 Hardy Dormant Roses for Fall and early 

 Spring planting in the open ground. 

 When Spring comes and you are done with 

 Roses in the house and conservatory, they 

 can be planted at once in the garden or 

 flower bed, where they should bloom all 

 Summer and Fall. These are all choice 

 well-tried sorts and good for either house 

 culture or garden planting. Cultural direc- 

 tions will be sent on request. 



Please Remember f^f ^'il'^tfo"'/^ 



repotted plants, in best condition to bloom 

 quickly and give plenty of lovely buds and 

 flowers all Winter. But it is better to have 

 them shipped by express, so the earth can 

 be left on the roots. Purchaser pays ex- 

 pressage, postage is paid by us.
