DORMANT 



MINIATURE 



ROSES 



STORAGE INFORMATION. When forcing 

 for the months of December or January, it is 

 essential that Miniature Roses be placed in cold 

 storage for about 5 weeks at a temperature of 

 34° to 38°. To allow sufficient growing time 

 for December 15 flowering, this means moving 

 plants to cold storage about August 31. Red 

 Imp, Ro-Peep and Cinderella are the best va- 

 rieties for Christmas forcing. These plants being 

 forced early need as much natural light as 

 possible.

VatmOMt MINIATURE 



No matter how you look at it, Star Miniature Roses are a red-hot profit item 

 for many reasons . . . they're a good mark-up item: they're unusual, different 

 and beautiful; they're a good traffic builder and they can be sold in so many 

 different ways. 



Star Miniature Roses are real roses, just like the big garden types. They differ 

 only in size. The plants grow only 8" to 12" tall. The buds are tiny — like grains 

 of wheat, and the blooms when fully open range in size from %" to 1/4" in di- 

 ameter. Rranches, leaves and thorns are correspondingly small. The plants are 

 just as hardy as the big roses and just as long-lived. They grow outdoors in the 

 garden or as pot plants in the house. Their small size, perfection and colorful 

 beauty make them an immediate "sell-on-sight" item.
