The Genuine 
ROSA ROULETTI 
★ HERE is the Ideal Gift Plant, a real “Plant 
Jewel”, the genuine Rosa Rouletti, a modern plant discovery from the 
Swiss Alps. It grows no more than a few inches high; a two-year-old 
blooming size specimen can easily be covered by a tea-cup! Yet it is an 
everbloomer, is easily grown, and is an ideal house plant. It has the dainti¬ 
est of finely cut, dark green leaves and its perfect little flowers, borne on 
wiry, upright stems, open from exquisitely shaped dark red buds, and are 
double, fragrant, and of a delicate shade of rose pink. The open flower is 
no larger than a dime! Rosa P^ouletti may be grown in the rock garden, for 
it is a hardy little rose, but its greatest charm is as a house plant. What could 
be more ideal as a gift to the invalid? 
We pride ourselves on having the genuine Rosa Rouletti, a true minia¬ 
ture from Nature’s laboratory that does not grow large and rank as does the 
little rose commonly sold under this name but which is nothing more than 
a type of the little “Fairy” rose (R. Lawrenciana). 
We ship this precious little rose safely anywhere, well established in its 
pot which is large enough for permanent use, expertly packed in our 
safety carton (manufactured especially for this purpose), accompanied 
by directions for its care. In this way it reaches the most distant points 
of our country in perfect condition and will thrive and bloom without 
the otherwise big risk in transplanting. Gift cards enclosed if desired.
