Climbing Tea and Noisette Roses 



This class includes some of our most beautiful and valuable Roses. They are unusually free and continuous bloomers, producing 

 flowers of rare and striking beauty. As they are all climbers, they should be placed near porches, pillars or trellises, where they have 

 support. They are hardy in the South.

 distinct showy center of pure white; florets not crowded, but of 

 beautiful arrangement, making as a whole a charming combina- 

 tion that cannot be beaten. Color is irresistible. Plant grows 

 like a weed, and the flowers are nearly "immortelle" in their 

 lasting qualities. Awarded gold medal.

 ling in its brilliancy, golden-yellow tipped with clear, bright 

 cense. The foliage is narrow, long tend sharply pointed, a 

 deep glossy green — a very beautiful setting for the lovely little 

 doll roses, a bench of "Baby Doll" being an even parterre of 

 delicious color. 



BABY DOROTHY — This is a glorious Rose. Flowers resemble 

 the Dorothy Perkins. Completely hides the plant with its 

 bloom. 



BABY ECHO— The best Polyantha produced. Color rosy- 

 flesh. Of splendid strong growth and freedom of bloom, which 

 are of wonderful keeping qualities either on or off the plant. 

 This is the improved Baby Tausendschoen. It has more sub- 

 stance and more color, and is the best of all Baby Roses for 

 pot culture. Be sure and try this one. 



BABY TAUSENDSCHOEN, or THOUSAND BEAUTIES— Its 

 flowers are large, so much like Thousand Beauties, that it has 

 been rechristened Baby Thousand Beauties. It is a busn 

 form of the Thousand Beauties, haying all the charm of the 

 variable coloring in its flowers that its parent has, being firm, 

 white, delicately flushed pink, changing to deep rosy-carmine. 

 A splendid Rose. Try it.

 best, and you will have some conception of the beauty of this 

 little gem which on account of the similarity in color has been 

 known among the cut flower trade as Baby Herriot. Its color 

 is a shrimp-pink with intense, coppery-scarlet suffusion, the 

 base of the petals golden-yellow which intensifies and lightens 

 up its high colors. Plant is of free growth and floriferous. We 

 are certain that Baby Herriot will please everyone.
