CLIMBERS 



W. A. RICHARDSON (Noisette). Ducher, 1878. Very deep 

 orange-yellow; small, very showy and distinct. 



SHOWER OP GOLD. Hybrid Wichuraiana. Paul and Son, 1910. 

 Light cream to pale yellow; spring only; foliage fair. 



In addition to the above, the Banksian and Chero- 

 kee roses give fine results for this section, and with 

 some growers Pink Cherokee and Ramona are 

 quoted as giving scattering blooms through a long 

 period. 



In the locality of Philadelphia for dwarf climbing 

 bloom which may be depended upon, Gruss an Tep- 

 litz budded on Multiflora is suggested. This rose 

 grows fully eight feet high without protection and 

 gives a quantity of bloom throughout the season. 

 In this connection, there is a climbing sport of Gruss 

 an Teplitz on the market, but this has not been suc- 

 cessful, as during the second year on two plants, less 

 than a dozen blooms appeared during the season. 



Among the white roses, Furstin von Pless is a 

 strong growing Hybrid Tea which grows to a height 

 of eight feet and gives bloom throughout the spring, 

 summer and autumn. It is not quite as hardy as 

 Teplitz, but even with some winter killing it will 

 grow to the height given by the end of the season, 

 and if thoroughly protected should do better. 



Among the pink roses, Lady Ursula on the Multi- 

 flora gives a quantity of bloom throughout the entire 



season and is nearly as hardy as Teplitz, although
