Rose Rouletti 
The Tiniest Rose Bush in the 
World! 
A great novelty. So tiny that 
a bee will almost cover a bloom, 
Rose Rouletti grows only from 
6 to 8 inches high, bearing a pro¬ 
fusion of lovely, semi-double soft 
rose pink rosette flowers, less 
than an inch in diameter, from 
early summer until frost. It is 
practically everblooming. Rose 
Rouletti makes a shapely com¬ 
pact growth, very bushy, with 
dainty finely cut foliage which is 
almost evergreen. 
An Edging for Rose Beds 
Rose Rouletti supplies a long 
felt want as a border for the rose 
bed! Or it may be used as a bor¬ 
der for the perennial bed, along 
the walk or driveway, and also, 
is desirable for the Rock Garden. 
In tests it has been perfectly 
hardy, remaining evergreen all 
winter. It is well to protect it, 
however, in severe climates. 
Price: Each, 35c; 3 for $1.00; 
6 for $1.85; do*., $3.45, postpaid. 
If wanted in paper pot and soil,

door planting. Large flowers.
