ROSES 
Roses are probably the most popular and satisfying of the out-of-door flowers. Given plenty of sunshine and 
water, they more than repay their cost in w'ealth of bloom the first season. 
After May first, only potted roses w’ill be supplied, as experience has shown that dormant plants can scarcely 
be relied upon for vigorous growth if set out later than that date. In early spring, dormant roses will be furnished 
at prices noted.
