New Climbing Rose, CRIMSON RAMBLER. 



The plant is of very vigorous growth, making shoots from eight to 

 ten feet during the season, rendering it a charming pillar Rose. One 

 of the striking characteristics of this Rose is its remarkable color, 

 which is of the brightest crimson. The flowers are produced in great 

 pyramidal panicles or trusses, each carrying from thirty to forty 

 blooms. It is exceedingly hardy, having successfully withstood the 

 test in exposed situations of two very severe Winters in England. 

 It is hardy in every latitude yet tried as far north as the lakes. As a 

 decorative pot plant it cannot be excelled. We can recommend this 

 novelty in the strongest manner as being a new Rose of great im- 

 portance and value. There has no Rose ever been introduced up to the 

 present time that has had as much written and said about it as this 

 famous Rose, and of course everybody will have to have one or more 

 plants of it. It is a Rose that we can endorse every word said about it. 

 We hare an immense stock of it in perfect health, so that all who purchase of us will be pleased. Price, 

 15 cents each; three plants for 40 cents. Large two-year-old plants, 60 cents each, or three for $1.00. 



REINE OLGA DE WURTEMBURG. 



This is a splendid Rose. Should be grown where the Marechal Neil succeeds. This variety as 

 grown in the south of France is simply indescribable. The people of the South would do well to 

 employ this beautiful sort for covering verandas and trellises. Color rosy-pink, suffused with 

 yellow and fawn. Price, 16 cents each. Large two. year-old plants, 50 cents each. 



W ONDERFUL NEW CLIMBING ROS E EMPRESS OF CHINA, 



This is a new Climbing Rose of the greatest excellence. It was brought to this country by a 

 gentleman from Cuba, who says of it that it commences to bloom in May, and is loaded with its 

 elegant blooms until December. Think of it! There is no other Rose like it that will bloom for so 

 long a time. This has been the great objection to Climbing Roses that they bloom once and then 

 are done. But here we have a Rose that blooms continuously for over seven months of the year. 

 It is simply wonderful. When it first opens the flowers are a beautiful red, but soon turn to a lovely 

 light pink, and it blooms so profusely as to almost hide the plant. It is pertectly hardy, and is a 

 vigorous grower. Don't fail to try this beautiful Rose, as it will please you. Price, 16 cents each; 

 three for 60 cents. Large two-year-old plants, 60 cents each, or two for $1.00. 



MARECHAL NEIL. 



A beautiful deep sulphur-yellow, very full, very large and exceedingly fragrant. It is the finest 

 yellow Rose in existence. It has a climbing habit, and where it is allowed to grow until it attains 

 a large size, as it will in a few years, it yields thousands of beautiful golden-yellow flowers. Es- 

 pecially desirable in the South. We sell annually fifty thousand of this Rose alone. We have a 

 grand stock of this variety. Price, first size, 10 cents each; fine plants, 25 cents each; extra 

 strong plants. 60 cents each. It will pay you to buy a strong plant.
