ROSA ROULETTI 
A real gem for the rock garden. 
This little Rose we observed for 
two years and we find that it flow¬ 
ers practically the entire summer. 
Grows about 8-10 inches in height 
and the same in spread. Flowers 
are pleasing rose pink color, semi¬ 
double. 
We consider this a wonderful 
little plant. Last fall we dug a few 
plants and potted them in 6 inch 
pots. From the standpoint of flow¬ 
ering ability, it blooms through¬ 
out the entire winter. Therefore, 
it is not only a wonderful little 
plant for rock gardens but it also 
makes a very attractive pot plant 
throughout the winter. 
We offer for spring sales strong 
established 2 % inch pot plants. 
This coming summer these plants 
will fully mature to a size that you 
can lift them next fall and work 
a few in your greenhouses.

Roses for Additional 
Profits 
Today Roses are not only sold in 
dormant stages. The florists are 
buying more and more Roses in 
mid-winter; they pot these and 
hold them in cold frames with 
the tops protected against dam¬ 
aging frosts. They are placed in¬ 
to 5 or 6 inch pots along in 
March or April to encourage 
new growth. 
Potted Roses command prac¬ 
tically double the price of a dor¬ 
mant Rose. Your customers will¬ 
ingly pay this additional cost 
for the reason that they actually 
see the plants in growth and 
flower. This enables them to se¬ 
lect the varieties they like best.
