'^ STAR LIST 



Our Star List Roses Sell 

 Themselves. So it is not necessary 

 to say much about them ; they con- 

 tinue to be so popular that it keeps 

 us. very busy to supply the demand, 

 which constantly increases as our cus- 

 tomers learn that they are as large 

 and fine plants as any we send out, 

 and give excellent satisfaction. They 

 are varieties which fur various reasons 

 ■we can afford to sell very cheap 

 for the present season. They 

 may be as good as the best; some 

 perhaps are in surplus, others proba- 

 bly did not go well last year or are 

 new sorts, not much asked for. We 

 can't keep them ; they must go 

 to the Star List, where the low 

 price soon finds a place for them, and 

 they gladden the hearts of people who 

 perhaps never had Roses before. 

 Next year some sorts may be back in 

 the Standard or even in the Dia- 

 mond List, so you are always sure 

 of getting good varieties, and the 

 place to get the most Roses for the 

 money is in the Star List. They are 

 without exception the cheapest Roses 

 ever offered, and are largely bought 

 by all classes of planters, 

 and we expect a heavier run on Star 

 List Roses this \ ear than ever before, but our stock is so large we 

 have no fear of running out.
