It is difficult for us as growers to estimate our exact needs two years in ad- 
vance (the time it takes to produce a good Rose plant). While certain kinds 
become sold out, there are other excellent varieties remaining. When granted 
‘the privilege of assisting with the selection, a substantial price reduction 
from catalogue value of $1.00 to $1.50 or more is made possible. Our selection 
will embrace a balanced and harmonious combination of colors to include the 
best reds, pinks, yellows, and bi-colors. Each plant will be labeled with the 
correct name but we cannot tell you in advance what they will be. You will 
recognize them when received and as they come into bloom the first season, — 
some of them standard kinds and some novelties. We furthermore promise the 
‘size and quality of each plant is right up to standard. We will select from those
