“It is our good fortune to be able to offer to the trade, for April 1st 
delivery, the long-looked-for red forcing rose; as fine as Liberty, as free 
as Bride, of quite as easy culture, retiuiring a temperature of 58 to 60 
degrees; does not go dormant in midwinter, produces very few short stems, 
and roots easily. .Plants benched in May are in November as large as two- 
year-old Libertss extremely fragrant. Was awarded silver cup at St. Louis 
and also at Chicago.” 
Price, $30.00 per 100, $250.00 per 1000; 250 plants for $70.00; 500 at
