JEWELS OF THE ROSE WORLD 



These amazing little Star Roses — genuine 

 Miniatures — are real Roses like the big Hybrid 

 Teas with blossoms, thorns, buds, leaves. They 

 differ only in size. The perfect blossoms are from 

 ^4 to 1 V'2 inches across, and the plant grows only 

 6 to 12 inches tall. Star Miniatures are hardy, 

 growing outdoors like their big sisters, and even 

 indoors under the right conditions tsee below/. 

 They bloom freely from spring to frost and are 

 perfect for borders, edges and rock gardens. They 

 make wonderful corsages, table decorations and 

 flower arrangements. Choose from the list at the 

 right. In the south, plant in fall. North of Wash- 

 ington, D. C, plant in spring. Perfectly winter- 

 hardy when established. Plants ordered for out- 

 door planting in the northern states will be shipped 

 at proper planting time in the spring. 



GROW MINIATURE STAR ROSES 

 INDOORS THIS WINTER! 



If you have a >vindow with a southern exposure where 

 the sun can reach your Star Rose Miniatures 3 to 4 

 hours a day, you can grow these wonderful plants with 

 great success. 



With enough sun and water, you wiU have fascinating, 

 beautiful blooms a few short weeks after planting. To help 

 you, we have prepared a Star Rose Miniature Planting Kit 

 which includes everything you need . . . any 3 dormant 

 Miniature plants selected from Baby Gold Star, Cinderella, 

 Red Imp or Sweet Fairy (these are the best for indoor 

 growing), 3 pots to plant them in, 2 packages of colored 

 pebbles, 1 can of Star Rose Grow (our special fertilizer), 1 

 package of especially prepared Star Rose Soil for Miniatures, 

 and 1 plastic tray to hold it all. When you receive your Kit, 

 place pebbles in tray and fill with water to top of pebbles. 

 Place the Rose plants in the pots, using the special soil. Then 

 set the pots in the tray on a sunny windowsill and keep at 

 regular house temperature. Remember to keep the water in 

 the tray covering the pebbles. That is all 

 there is to it. You should have lovely 

 blooms in 7 weeks. Feed the plajits during 

 the growing season, not at planting time.
