Roses for Winter Bloom 
We are large growers and importers of Roses, flowers, 
seeds and bulbs, but the Rose is our leading specialty. 
“ The Best Roses in America.” We grow them by the 
100,000’s, and in our Spring Guide issued in January, 
we offer all the newest and choicest varieties in one and 
two-year and some in three-year sizes. 
You will find listed in this catalog the kinds we recom¬ 
mend for Autumn planting. (For outdoors see pages 34 
and 35.) On this page we offer the choicest kinds for 
winter blooming indoors or under glass. And when 
Winter is over you will find them just the right kind to 
plant out in your garden for Summer bloom. Cultural 
directions will be sent on request. 
Please Remember that ‘h«e Roses are all strong 
- repotted plants, in best con¬ 
dition to bloom quickly and give plenty of lovely buds 
and flowers all Winter. But it is better to have them 
shipped by express, so the earth can be left on the roots. 
Purchaser pays expressage, unless otherwise arranged; 
postage is paid by us. 
WlTl R Smith A wonderful Rose. (By some sold under the name of Jeanette Heller, also 
—_!-1- Chas. Dingee.) We gave this Rose the honor place in our catalog last Spring (the 
front cover). We recommend it with our unqualified endorsement for almost every location. We have 
yet to hear of a disappointed customer. We also recommend it for Winter bloom indoors. The 
flowers are large, full and double and most exquisitely formed. The petals are so firm they look like 
wax, softly curled, colored cream with flesh tint tips, buff yellow base and the center a heart of pink.

is delightful. Price, 25c. each, postpaid.
