HENRY A. DREER 



The Roses offered here are all field-grown plants 

 which have been kept in pots during the winter 

 months, stored in cold houses or cold frames so that 

 they will break away naturally in spring. They are 

 the best possible stock for selling to the retail cus- 

 tomer. The prices are for strong plants in 5 or 6 

 inch pots, according to the growth of the variety, for 

 delivery during April, May, and June. While we can 

 make shipments of Potted Plants earlier if requested 

 we prefer to book orders for these months only. 

 Where prices are given "per 100" only, these will 

 apply to any number of plants selected. 



Eclipse 



You Are Cordially Invited 



to visit the Dreer Rose Garden at Riverton, New 

 Jersey. The best time to see the display is during 

 June, yet late fall, just before frost, presents another 

 opportunity to inspect the hundreds of varieties 

 planted. In addition to the best of the standard 

 varieties there are all the finest novelties and a 

 number of unnamed seedlings that are very 

 promising.
