BABY ROSES 
(Polyantha Roses) 
These low growing, everblooming roses are 
charming when used for bedding, and for bor¬ 
ders, or edgings for flower beds, rose gardens, 
and along walks in the manner in which they 
have been favorites for years in almost every 
fine European garden. 
In our landscape designs they are freely used 
where a colorful free-blooming border or bed is 
desired. 
They are dwarf, compact of habit and blos¬ 
som in sprays so freely as to completely cover 
the plants, and the sprays of bloom make de¬ 
lightful cut flowers for the table. 
Our collection is made up of eight splendid 
varieties.

white, full double, fragrant.

tiful bright pink buds and

of shrimp pink with coppery red 
shadings. Small pointed buds,

pact, symmetrical growth, and

tined to become the most favored of roses in 
tree form, with coppery rose buds and glowing 
rose open flowers on long-branched sprays.

glossy evergreen foliage are always effective with 
the pure white, single roses.
