All Hybrid Tea roses offered unless otherwise 
priced are 75 cents each, $9.00 per dozen, $70.00 
per 100. We handle only the highest quality of field 
grown two year old grafted plants. We do not offer 
any of the cheap discarded greenhouse forced roses, 
nor do we handle any on their own roots as they 
are valueless in New England, although succeeding 
quite well in certain of our warmer states.
