Choice Roses, 



Fine Roses are everywhere appreciated. They are one of my leading specialties; budded or 

 OWN-ROOT PLANTS, per 100 and 1,000 at low prices. 



The Hybrid Remontant or Perpetuals are hardy, and as a rule the most satisfactory for outside 

 planting. 



All Roses require rich soil and liberal treatment. Close pruning in spring is important. 



I offer this autumn remarkably fine Hybrid Perpetuals, strong one and Two- Year Plants on 

 OWN ROOTS FOR PLANTING OUTSIDE Or forcing. aIso, fine pot plants grown specially for forcing.
