Dreer's QUALITY ROSES 



Six Small-Flowering Polyantha Roses 



The Polyantha or Baby Roses represent a distinct type which is very popular 

 for bedding purposes. The plants grow i nto shapely compact bushes about 18 

 inches high and they are covered with a great mass of flowers from early in the 

 season until severe frost destroys their beauty. The blooms, though small, are 

 very effective as they are arranged in showy trusses that accentuate their rich 

 and beautiful coloring. 

 Cecile Brunner {The Fairy or Sweetheart Rose). A dainty variety with small 



double blooms of perfect form. They are arranged in many flowered, graceful 



sprays. Soft rosy pink on a rich creamy white ground. Moderately fragrant.

blooms that fairly blaze in the sunhght. Very showy.
