ilege and pleasure to provide Seeds for Pittsburgh’s most critical amateur and professional 
gardeners. We offer one of the most comprehensive collections of Flower Seeds in this 
B country. “Ask Your Neighbor!” 
Sixteen Beautiful Annuals , 
Easy to Grow, For One Dollar, Postpaid 
Last year the Editor of GARDEN MAGAZINE, after examining the collection, bought 
several of them, and pronounced them by far the best general purpose collection of 
easily grown Annuals ever offered. All of these are of very strong vitality, and the 
j plants even as seedlings, make very small demands in the way of special attention, soil, 
and care. They will grow literally for anybody, and will do well where even but few hours of sunshine help 
each day. The principal ones are: Candytuft, Celosia. Cosmos, Orange Daisy, Hyacinth Bean, Escholtzias, 
Godetias. Kochia. Marigold. Nigella, Petunia, Salpiglossis, Scabiosa, Verbena, Vinca, and Zinnias. 
Special Offer: We will mail one packet of each, our choice of varieties, 
1 16 packets in all, for $1.00 postpaid. This provides a 
constant supply of flowers from July until frost.

Bowers of Beauty 
An Unrivalled Offer of Climbing Roses 
We have secured from one of the most reliable Rose growers of America, 
a fine lot of two-year-old field-grown Roses in the following varieties, to 
be shipped in late March or early April. 
Climbing American Beauty. A rose 
of great merit. Color, a rosy crimson, simi- 
lar to H. P. American Beauty, and a fra- 
grance rarely found in ( limbing Roses. Flow- 
ers 3 to 4 inches in diameter of fine form, 
produced in great profusion. 
Dorothy Perkins. A clear cherry pink 
Rose of sweet fragrance. The double flowers 
are borne profusely in clusters, and are last- 
ing. Vigorous and hardy in all localities, and 
always healthy. This Rose is one of the 
best for pergolas, arbors, or for ground cover. 
Excelsa (Red Dorothy Perkins). A 
beautiful double clear bright crimson with 
no trace of magenta, and foliage always clean 
and glassy with never any mildew which 
sometimes makes Crimson Rambler un- 
sightly. 
Hiawatha. Single, bright ruby red pet- 
als shading to white at the base, makes the 
flowers of this Rose distinctive. It grows 
rapidly, and produces strong canes. Like 
the Memorial Roses in general, Hiawatha 
will grow almost anywhere, and produces its 
lovely flowers in abundance. 
Philadelphia Rambler. This Rose 
blooms earlier than the Crimson Rambler. 
The flowers are glowing crimson, double, and 
of good substance. The clusters are large 
and attractive. Very vigorous. 
White Dorothy. This Rose is a dupli- 
cate of Dorothy Perkins except in color. It 
is rapidly displacing the old fashioned White 
Rambler. 
Strong two-year, field grown, 75c 
each, $7.50 per doz. 
SPECIAL OFFER: 
One each of the six varieties; a 
splendid collection for S4.00. Prices on larger quantities upon application.
