The TlJorld’s Smallest‘Tose 
A MATURE BLOOMING PLANT 
EASILY COVERED BY A TEACUP! 
Native of the Swiss Alps, this rare dwarf rose, 
Rosa Rouletti, smallest rose in all the world, is an 
exquisite plant miniature that may be grown either 
indoors or out. Because it is everblooming in habit and 
hardy, it is a great favorite with plant lovers fortun¬ 
ate to possess one. 
There are many kinds of dwarf roses but Rosa 
Rouletti is the only one that remains permanently a 
dwarf. A mature, two-year-old blooming specimen 
may readily be covered by a teacup! Six of its charm¬ 
ing little double, fragrant blooms can easily be dis¬ 
played in half a walnut shell! The full blown pink 
flower is often no larger than a dime! The flower lasts 
for weeks for it opens deliberately and slowly, and the 
tiny, long buds, with their dainty feathered sepals, are 
one of Nature’s gems! 
This miniature rose is a joy to an invalid and in much favor as a gift plant. Its 
blooming habit is continuous and with the simple but full directions that we give with 
each plant it is easily grown, to last for many years. 
We are especially proud of the fact that ours is the genuine Rosa Rouletti, origi¬ 
nating from the rare specimen first found by the discoverer.

The Old fashioned TJ’airy Tgse 
The old Fashioned Fairy Rose is another dwarf rose, most desirable for the open 
garden as well as indoors, and very easily grown. Except during frost it is seldom out of 
bloom. Its tiny, double, brilliantly red flowers are fragrant and about an inch wide, borne 
on wiry upright stems. The foliage is attractive and the plant resists disease and pests re¬ 
markably well. 
This little rose came from the island of Mauritius more than a century ago and 
although little known in America has for long been a favorite in England.
