STAR ROSES MAKE WELCOME GIFTS 

 THEy KEEP ON GIVING, YEAR AFTER YEAR 



1. An attractive Christmas card announcing your gift will be sent at the proper time 

 to anyone for whom you order Christmas gift Roses. 



2. The plants will be shipped next spring at the right time for planting, unless you 

 request otherwise. E£U"ly orders can be sent in time for fall planting if you prefer. 



3. All Christmas gift orders must reach us by December 15 if the announcement cards 

 are to arrive in time. 



4. Earlier ordering is advisable. (This will help you, too, to avoid the rush of many 

 things to do at the last moment.) 



5. Be sure to give full names and addresses to which the Roses are to be sent. Please 

 print these names and addresses clearly so your gift can be properly delivered. 



6. Please write all gift orders on separate paper from other orders. Send your orders 

 now, and those gifts will be all attended to. 



7. On the gift card we write your name as donor, the names of the Roses ordered and 

 the date when the plants will be forwarded. We attend to the shipping time. Full planting 

 and cultural directions go with each order. 



8. If you prefer, you can order $2.50 or $5 gift certificates in any amount to be sent 

 with the Christmas cards announcing your gifts. These permit your friends to make their 

 own selections, which is often most appreciated. A copy of our Spring Catalog is sent to 

 each as soon as it comes from the press, and when they order, there can be no doubt that 

 your gifts will be "Just what they wanted." 



9. By ordering Star Roses or Star Rose Gift Certificates as Christmas gifts, you avoid 

 the tiresome annoyance of pushing through Christmas shopping crowds, and have the 

 satisfaction of knowing your present will be joyfully received, even if it is duplicated by 

 someone else. There is always room for more Roses in a flower-lover's garden.
