TWO =YEAR 
OLD ROSES 
The demand for our Two-year Old Roses is constantly increasing, and 
we are fully prepared this Season with an extra fine stock of choicest 
varieties, which will be found fully described on pages 36 and 37. 
These Two-year Old Roses are so large that they cannot be sent by 
—■ mail, hut must go by express, and the purchaser pays the express 
charges ; but we are careful to pack as light as the safety of the plants will permit, and always add as 
many extras as we can afford, to help pay the charges. All our express shipments are billed through at 
the special 20 per cent, reduction allowed on plants, so that the charges are now very reasonable. 
Two-year Roses weigh when packed about as follows ; 12 plants, 20 pounds ; 25 plants, 35 pounds ; 
50 plants, 50 pounds ; 100 plants, 75 pounds. This includes the earth left on roots, which is quite neces¬ 
sary to Roses of this size ; if all the earth is shaken off the plants may be hard to start and slow to bloom, 
and this is one of the reasons why Two-year Roses should always be sent by express when convenient. 
PLEASE NOTICE : All our Two-year Roses are grown in pots, on their own roots, and are fine 
thrifty plants, 12 to 15 inches high, ready for immediate bloom.
