On a little plot of ground $e 
Handkerchief-sized 
you can make a complete Rose garden with walks and seats 
and a summer-house. 
The Fairies would surely come, the Elves and Imps and tiny 
tots, for it would be their Rose garden. Tom Thumb they like 
ave Pixie, too. And now has come the sweetest one of all, Sweet 
airy. 
A little boy or girl could tend this garden—keep out the weeds, 
cut off faded blossoms or pick buds and blooms for thimble-size 
bouquets. 
These Miniature or Fairy Roses are easy to grow, require no 
extra care, are as hardy as the average Hybrid Tea, and they 
bloom not only in spring but also all summer and fall. On this 
page are found a super-selection of extra-choice kinds—not 
merely Rouletti of 100 years ago but recent novelties from 
Holland, more double, and now one with sweet fragrance. Use 
them in any unique arrangement or to border a flower bed or 
walk, or as interest points in your rock garden.
