 shade in Climbing Roses. 35 cents. Two-year 

 plants, 75 cents. 



RED DOROTHY PERKINS, or EXCELSA — The de- 

 fects of Crimson Rambler are its unsightly foli- 

 age in unseasonable weather and its defoliation 

 by insects; the infusion of Wichuraiana blood as- 

 sures an ornamental climber which is nearly ever- 

 green, and this will assure this lovely crimson- 

 scarlet pillar Rose a place in every American gar- 

 den, for it is quite hardy in addition to all its 

 other fine points. The flowers are very double, 

 produced in large trusses of thirty to forty, and 

 almost every eye on a shoot produces large clus- 

 - ters of flowers. The color is Intense crimson- 

 maroon the tips of the petals tinged with scarlet. 

 The finest of all red Climbing Roses. 25c. Two- 

 year plants, 60 cents.

 sand Beauties." A grand Rose from any stand- 

 point. 25 cents. Two-year plants, 60 cents. 



SHOWER OF GOLD — This variety produces masses 

 of flowers in large clusters. The color is a deep 

 golden-yellow, with orange shadings in the cen- 



ter. Enormous lateral branches are produced, 

 which are densely clad with glossy green foliage 

 that resists disease. This fills the "long felt 

 want" for a hardy yellow Climbing Rose. 25 

 cents. Two-year plants, 60 cents. 



SILVER MOON — Flowers very large, four and one- 

 half inches and over in diameter. Pure white in 

 color; petals of great substance, beautifully 

 cupped, forming- a clematis-like flower. The large 

 bunch of yellow stamens in the center adds to 

 its attractiveness. These flowers are borne on 

 strong stems twelve to eighteen inches long, and 

 are delicately scented. The plant is a strong 

 grower, with large, glossy, bronze-green foliage. 

 25 cents. Two-year plants, 60 cents. 



TAUSENDSCHOEN. or THOUSAND BEAUTIES — A 



Climbing Rose that comes to us from Germany. 

 The flowers upon first opening are the most deli- 

 cate shade of pink ever seen in a Rose, might be 

 described as a white delicate flushed pink, chang- 

 ing to rosy-carmine. It gets its name from its 

 many flowers and the variation in coloring. This 

 Rose is sweeping the country like a prairie fire. 

 25 cents. Two-year plants. 60 cents. 



VEiLtHEJiBLAU (The Wonderful New Bine Rose)

 being perfectly hardy. It has created a great 

 stir in the Rose World, for the talk of a Blue 

 Rose has been going on since time immemorial.
