SMALL’S 
RECOMMENDED ROSES 
for 
Spring and Summer Planting 
"S 
We advise potted Roses for late spring and summer planting. Because 
their roots are well established in ten pounds of rich soil, they plant 
without shock, grow more vigorously, and bloom more freely than spring- 
planted dormant Roses. All potted Roses are 85 cts. each, unless other¬ 
wise noted. Dormant Roses available until about April 1, at 55 cts. each. 
R. M. S. QUEEN MARY 
We offer only No. 1, two-year-old, budded, field- 
grown Roses—the best that we can buy. They will 
come to your garden directly from our frames, 
fresh, vigorous, and ready for immediate active 
growth. Their future then is in your liands; care 
for them—they are worthy of it. A leaflet with full 
cultural directions accompanies every order.
