ROSES (continued) 
GENERAL COLLECTION 
Roses listed at 25 cts. each are $2.50 per dozen. 
Roses listed at 30 cts. each are $3.00 per dozen. 
Roses listed at 35 cts. each are $3.50 per dozen. 
NOTE: Between January 1 and March 31, roses are 
dormant and shipped with naked roots. After April 1, 
they are “potted” in one gallon cans, as the dormant 
season is generally over by that time of the year, and the sap 
has started to flow. After roses are in cans, as above, all 
25 ct. plants are 35 cts. each, $3.50 per dozen; 30 ct. 
plants are 35 cts. each, $3.50 per dozen; 35 ct. plants, 
40 cts. each, $4 per dozen. 
The increased cost of handling roses after April 1 necessi¬ 
tates the increase of price as noted. 
Roses in cans will weigh about lbs. on the average. 
On shipping orders via Express, we ‘‘ball” the plant out 
of the can on long distance shipments (unless otherwise 
ordered), to save customers transportation charges. Roses 
balled by our method will weigh *on the average 4H 
pounds; naked roots 1 to 1J4 pounds. Customers selecting 
their own roses are respectfully requested to add to the 
orders a few supplementary varieties, lest, by previous orders, 
the stock of any particular variety should be exhausted.
