A GAIN we offer a fine grade of 
dormant hardy Roses, to satisfy 
a demand from many custom¬ 
ers for plants that can be planted 
outside early in spring, before it is 
safe to set out plants ttiatare grow¬ 
ing in pots, and consequently are 
in full leaf. The illustration shows 
the character of the plants we supply; 
also the method of planting and prun¬ 
ing them after being planted. We can 
supply these from the time this catalogue 
is issued up to April 15 tk ; after that time 
they can only be supplied from pots, at the 
prices quoted at the end of the list. If planted 
as shown in the illustration, these Roses, although budded, will emit roots 
where the true Rose joins the Brier stock, and will eventually become estab¬ 
lished on their own roots. The great value of these budded Roses lies in the 
fact that they produce better flowers and make stronger plants in a shorter 
period than those grown from cuttings; and tiio advantage is that having no 
soil on the roots and being dormant, they are of little weight and can be sent 
cheaply by express. Buy early and store in cellar until ground is ready.
