POTTED ROSES 
BLOOMING PLANTS IN SPECIAL REMOVABLE CONTAINERS . . CAN 
BE PLANTED ANY TIME .. . WITHOUT SETBACK OR LOSS 
If it is impossible for you to plant your roses during Ke spring season, when the plants are dormant, you 
need not despair. You can plant these potted plants ANY TIME. 
Early in the spring, ‘at the proper time, we plant, in these special removable containers, in SPECIALLY 
PREPARED SOIL, a large number of roses (some of nearly every variety we list). Late in May, when it 
begins to get too late to plant dormant roses, these fine plants are beginning to bloom and are ready for sale. 
Since each plant weighs approximately 12 pounds, they are very difficult to ship. So, you should drive in, 
pick out your plants first hand, and take them away in ydéur car. When you see theamiibicom you can be 
sure of getting just the variety or color you want. 
PRICES: All varieties listed on pages 28, 29 and 34 with exception of the Patented Varieties and 
Climbers, are priced at $1.75 each. The Patented Varieties and Climbers listed on pages 1, 30, 31, 32, 
33, 34 and 35 are priced at the “per each” price listed, plus 50 cents each. (Thus, a potted plant of 
“MIRANDY” would sell for $2.75 each, not prepaid.) 
MAIL ORDERS: We ship these potted roses by express or truck, charges collect. Each pot and rose 
weigh about 12 pounds, so 5 or 6 roses will travel.as cheaply as one.
