CLIMBING ROSES FOR PILLAR AND TRELLIS 



*AGLAIA (PoL). Yellow in bud, becoming white. Double. Slightly 

 fragrant. The nearest to yellow among the ramblers. This, and 

 all roses of similar habit, should be pruned merely by thinning out 

 the old flowering canes. 



*ALBERIC BARBIER (Hyb. Wicb.). Creamy white, yellow in the bud. 

 Semi-double. Medium sized. Fragrant. The best white pillar 

 rose for size of flowers. 



ARD S ROVER (H. P.). Crimson, shaded maroon. Flowers equal to 

 many of the regular H. P. varieties. Large. Fragrant. Blooms 

 middle of June and early July. 



BALTIMORE BELLE (Hyb. setigera). Double. Creamy white. Foliage 

 light green. Blooms July. Also good for shrubbery. 



*CARMINE PILLAR (H. P.). Carmine. Single. Three inches across. 

 Early. The largest-flowered and deepest-coloured climber. Vigorous. 

 Do not prune. 



*CRIMSON RAMBLER (PoL). Trusses of bright crimson flowers in 

 profusion. For walls, pillars, trellises, etc. The most popular 

 climbing rose. Very vigorous. Philadelphia is very like this, 

 but flowers earlier, and not so liable to disease. Cut out 

 old canes. 



*DOROTHY PERKINS (Hyb. fFicb.). Shell pink. Double. In many- 

 flowered, loose trusses. Best pink climber. Closely resembling 

 Crimson Rambler, but more elegant, and with glossy foliage. 



*FARQUHAR (Hyb. Wicb). Bright pink. Double. In clusters. Trail 

 ing. For banks, walls, pillars, etc. Cut out old canes. Similar 

 to Dorothy Perkins in habit.
