STAR ROSES— WHOLESALE 



* 



• Midget Edging Rose 



TOM THUMB 



This tiniest-red-Rose-in-existence has touched the heart 

 strings and purse-strings of Novelty-lovers nearly everywhere. 

 Demand for it is tremendous. 



TOM THUMB grows only 6 inches high, has miniature 

 foliage, blooms all the time. Delightful for edging pools and 

 flower beds; for rock gardens, children's gardens and perennial 

 borders. Supply still somewhat limited. Retails $1. each; 

 $10. dozen. 



To the trade: 3" pots, 100 for $50.-10 for $6. 



ROSA HUGONIS 



"Golden Shrub-Rose of China" 



HUGONIS is now the standard for Rose Hedges and 

 specimens. It is prized for its extreme hardiness, its ability 

 to make a distinctive and almost impenetrable hedge and its 

 habit of being first to flower (in early May ahead of other 

 Roses and Shrubs). It requires little care and blooms best 

 when planted in unfertilized soil. Introduced by us 20 years 

 ago; sales still going strong. Retail Price: 75 p each. 



Dormant 2-year field plants, own root 



Prices to Trade: 

 100 for $20. 10 for $2.50 



HISTORY- MAKING ROSES 



See illustration front cover 



Here is pictured the outbreak of the "War of the Roses" 

 when, English history tells us, one side chose for its rallying 

 sign a white Rose, the other a red Rose. With the restoration 

 of peace there was discovered on the same bush a rose partly 

 white and partly red, York & Lancaster, see retail catalog.
