I I ERE is a collection of magnificent Ever-blooming Roses, the like of which have never been 

 ^ — I offered before by any house. In this set are the rarest, most valuable and prettiest Roses 



* ' in the world. It will require but a glance at our beautiful colored-plate illustration on 

 preceding page (which was painted direct from nature) to bear us out in this broad asser- 

 tion. It is impossible to describe their startling beauty, which embraces nearly every color of the 

 rainbow. Even a colored plate does not do them justice. We have been preparing this stock for 

 a year back, and it is with a feeling of pride that we now have them in large enough supply to 

 make this grand offer. The price is remarkably low, and every lover of beautiful Roses should 

 plant this selection. They will bloom continuously from the time they are planted up until 

 severe freezing weather. They are strictly ever-blooming Roses in every sense of the word. 

 Strong growers, quick bloomers, and the kind of Roses that you are sure to succeed with. Hardy 

 without protection where the Winters are mild ; in colder climates they should have careful pro- 

 tection. Don't miss this remarkable set of Roses.
