Varieties not offered elsewhere in this Catalogue. 
Examine the list carefully; it contains the 
very finest of the old standard sorts, 
n LTHOUGH we do not offer as long a list of varieties of Roses

offered a long list, which would of necessity contain many inferior 
sorts.

In this unique offer we group sixteen summer-blooming Roses of established 
merit, and send them, free by mail , for 
$1.00. As they are growing in pots 
they can be sent at any time, and 
may be kept in a sunny window, in 
pots, until time to plant out in the gar¬ 
den. Our pamphlet, “Garden Culture 
of the Rose,” will be sent free to those 
applying for it. This tells how to treat 
the plants when received and how to 
care for them thereafter. We give the 
names of the varieties, but should stock 
of any sort named become exhausted, 
we reserve the right to send another of 
similar character and equally desirable 
in place of it, without further notice.
