★ ROULETTI. See illustration below. 
This little pink Rose is the mother of Tom 
Thumb and is valued as a pot plant and 
also as an everblooming edging plant. It is 
quite hardy. The original plants were lost 
for years and later found in Switzerland 
where a cottager grew it in pots on a win- 
dow ledge. Thousands and thousands^ of 
Rosa Rouletti are now giving satisfaction 
in gardens in U. S. A. Pot plants, 65 cts. 
ea.; 3 for $1.65; 12 for $6.50; 25 for $12, 
postpaid. 
★ PIXIE. Plant Pat. 408. See illustrations. 
This is the most fully double of all the 
Miniature Roses, for 40 or more tiny petals 
are marvelously packed in each little bloom, 
as only Dame Nature can do. They bloom 
singly and also in lovely clusters. They 
make charming bouquets. 
The blooms come continuously all season 
and in warm weather are white with a faint 
flush of pink in the center. In cool weather 
the flowers assume a lovely shade of apple- 
blossom-pink. Pot plants, 75 cts. ea., 
3 for $1.88; 12 for $7.50; 25 for $13.75, 
postpaid.
