Miniatui 



Miniature Roses — petite, adorable, yet sturdy 

 and strong despite their diminutive size — make 

 Fairyland a living, growing reality. No other flower 

 could possibly convey the spirit of this little wonder- 

 land so appropriately as Roses, the Queen of Flow- 

 ers. There's Uf e and activity as the wee green buds, 

 frequently not larger than a grain of wheat, push 

 upward on slender stems where they can sun them- 

 selves and expand into lovely little blooms of 

 thumb-nail size. They are intriguing Uttle plants, 

 6 to 8 inches tall, with tiny rich green leaves almost 

 as alluring as the flowers. 



For Porch Boxes

 vivacity, yet only 6 inches tall, with perfectly 

 modeled buds showing a rich shade of pink between

 deep rose, not quite so dark as shown in the picture 

 on the opposite page. The dainty blooms are fully 

 double and measure only ^ inch across when fully 

 expanded. Pot plants: 75 cts. ea.; 3 for $1.90; 

 12 for $7.50; 25 for $13.75, postpaid.

 white Rose. Forty or more dainty petals, neatly 

 arranged into rounded, fully double, ^-inch Roses, 

 with the well-proportioned, deep green leaves set-

 sometimes touched with pink and during the cool 

 seasons they open a warm light apple-blossom-pink 

 shade. Pixie is especially delightful for bouton- 

 nieres and miniature bouquets. Pot plants: 75 cts. 

 ea.; 3 for $1.90; 12 for $7.50; 25 for $13.75,

 land. Join the many thousands throughout the
