Without doubt the most valuable of all the hew 

 Climbing Roses of comparatively recent introduc-

 admirably set oflT by the rich green foliage, which 

 is free from the attacks of insects. 



In addition to this charming kind, we have all 

 the popular varieties in climbing and bush Roses. 

 Our General Catalogne, which will be mailed on 

 request, contains descriptions of all the best Roses

 same thing better in

 ness, you must first 

 have a solid founda- 

 tion — the best bulbs.

 age better than any
