 and yield an abundance of splendid tiowers at once. We offer plants on own roots only. They are far superior to budded 

 or gralted Koses, which are always unsatisfactory. Our stock has been grown cool arid without stimulants. Those -who 

 buy Roses from us this year Avill receive the best-grown plants in America at prices that are lower than the lowest, the quality 

 of the stock considered. We will fill your order in a way to convince you of this fact. Our Two-Yea'-Old Roses are all po*t 

 grown. We s:uarantee the safe delivery of all goods to any Host Oftice or Express Office in the United States.
