 Roses for 



WITHOUT exception this is the most popular and widely appreciated offer we have ever made. The steadily growing 

 demand for this set is the best incentive we need have to select for it the finest Roses ; varieties such as we know will 

 give pleasure and satisfaction to those securing them. A pertinent fact, one that we are ever mindful of. is that 

 our success necessarily depends upon our customers' success ; the plants we send out must give entire satisfaction. 

 We have selected six well-known meritorious Ever-blooming Tea Roses described below, and have grown one 

 hundred thousand (100,000) plants in 2% and 3-inch pots, which we are willing to send out to thousands of friends who will 

 take advantage of this offer, as fit representatives to establish and prove our assertion that the D. & C. Roses are the best and 

 most reliable Roses grown. They are on their own roots. 



Each variety is first-class and will stand upon its individual merits. Those who appreciate and take advantage of this 

 unsurpassed offer of New and Choice Roses need have no fear of disappointment. We have been careful to select kinds par- 

 ticularly adapted to outdoor cultivation, and the mass of bloom they will produce continuously from June until severe 

 frosts will be a constant delight. They are half hardy, and if left in open ground during Winter they should be protected 

 by a covering of leaves, straw or evergreen boughs.
