NEW GUIDE TO ROSE CULTURE. 



4& 



TWO TEAR EOSES FOR IMMEDIATE EFFECT. 



We recommend our ordinary size Roses for general planting, and know that they give 

 excellent satisfaction in every wav, but as some of our friends want LARGER ROSES FOR 

 IMMEDIATE EFFECT, we now offer a fine stock of 



TWO YEAR ROSES, 12 TO 16 INCHES HIGH, FROM 4 AND 5 INCH POTS. 



These plants, being older and muh larger than the ordinary size, bloom quickly and 

 make a fine appearance at once. Those sent out last season gave great satisfaction. 



PARTICULAR NOTICE.— AS WB KEEP BUT A LIMITED NUMBER OF 

 VARIETIES IN THE TWO-YEAR SIZE, PURCHASERS WILL PLEASE SELECT 

 AS FAR AS POSSIBLE FROM THE LISTS GIVEN BELOW. We have many other 

 sorts, hov7ever, and always endeavor to fill orders exactly as given, but -when impossible 

 to give all the varieties asked for, -we request permission to put in other sorts of same 

 color and equal value, VTithout taking time to correspond, and marking on the labels the 

 changes made, if any. We assure our friends that when the selection is left partly to us, 

 we can frequently send better plants and better varieties than they would be likely to 

 select for themselves, and we guarantee satisfaction in every case.
