first to bloom in June and one of the last to 
finish. 
Silver Moon. Beautiful, semi-double pure white

pure white Climber. Clusters of white, loosely 
double flowers bloom heavily in early days and

vigorous habit, growing 2 to 3 feet high, and are 
a mass of attractive flowers throughout the season,

POTTED ROSES

The New and Modern Way. Ready for Delivery After June 1. 
$1.00 each; $10.00 per doz., unless otherwise noted. 
Extra-heavy plants, $1.50 and $2.00 each. 
This modern way of selling roses eliminates 
all clanger of them not starting or dying after 
being planted in your garden, due to improper 
handling and planting. When you purchase 
POTTED ROSES, they are already planted 
properly in specially prepared fertilized soil to 
insure rapid, permanent growth and bloom. 
Our POTTED ROSES may be transplanted 
successfully in your garden any time during the 
growing season by simply tearing away the pot 
and setting the plant into the bed without dis¬ 
turbing the soil or root system.
