The Best New and Old Hardy Climbing 

 Roses of Various Types 



Price, 1-year, 25c each, except where noted; 2 -year, 40c each, except where noted. 



A LI DA LOVETT (H. W.) — Both buds and flowers are large; are 

 of ideal form, are held on stiff stems a foot and a half to two 

 feet long and the color is a lively bright shell-pink with shadings 

 of rich sulphur at the base of the petals — a combination that is 

 both novel and beautiful. Pleasantly perfumed. 



AMERICAN PILLAR (H. M.)— A single flowering variety o f 

 great beauty, which appeals to everyone. The flowers are of 

 enormous size, three to four inches across, of a lovely shade of 

 apple-blossom pink, with a clear white eye and clusters of yellow 

 stamens. These flowers are borne in immense bunches, and a 

 large plant in full bloom is a sight not easily forgotten. 



AVIATEUR BLERIOT (H. W.)— Saffron-yellow, center golden- 

 yellow; full and double, flowering in clusters. 



BESS LOVETT (H. W.)— The flowers are clear bright red, of 

 good size and of double, full, cupped form, lasting a long time 

 in good condition. Beautiful in bud and bloom and the most 

 fragrant of the Climbing Roses. 



BIRDIE BLYE (Heart of France.) — Our patrons from various 

 parts clamored for more because it can always be counted on 

 for its bright satiny-pink blossoms, quite cup shaped with frag- 

 rance in the cup. You'd enjoy this Rose planted where it could 

 grow to 3 to 4 feet and please you with weekly bouquets. 



BONNIE PRINCE (H. W.) — Bud small long-pointed; flower me- 

 dium size, cupped, double, fragrant, white with tinge of yellow 

 in center, borne in clusters. Very vigorous climber, profuse 

 bloomer in June and occasionally thereafter. Very hardy. 

 One year, 50c. No two year olds. 



CHRISTINE WRIGHT (H. W.)— A most exquisite Rose, a cross 

 between Caroline Testout and an unnamed seedling; it is of strong 

 climbing habit, with large, heavy, dark green foliage, which is 

 immune to disease. The flowers are double from three and one- 

 half to four inches in diameter, borne singly and in clusters, of 

 .perfect form, beautiful in the bud, and in the fully expanded 

 flower; in color a most refreshing bright wild-rose pink. 



CLIMBING AMERICAN BEAUTY (H. W.)— Same color, size 

 and fragrance as American Beauty, with the addition of the 

 climbing habit. Good foliage and better blooming qualities. 

 Blooms three to four inches across; has proved perfectly hardy 

 and stands heat and drought as well as any Rose in our collection. 



CLIMBING WHITE AMERICAN BEAUTY (H. W.)— A hardy 

 disease-resistant variety. It is much more double than Silver 

 Moon, with but a single flower to a stem. Has excellent keeping 

 qualities. 



CRIMSON RAMBLER (C. P.) —Bright crimson flowers produced 

 in large clusters of pyramidal form; grand variety for pillars 

 and arches and to train over porches; also makes a fine attrac- 

 tive hedge. 



DOROTHY PERKINS (Perkins, 1902.) (H. W.)— A most beau- 

 tiful deep pink; the flowers are borne in large clusters of smal* 

 double blooms and are very sweetly scented. 



Mary Wallace 



A Great Breeder's Legacy. 



This is Dr. Van Fleet's masterpiece. The trade are slow in taking 

 hold of this charming pillar rose. Hardy on a line with Wash- 

 ington, D. C. Blooms two or three times during the summer 

 months. A pillar rose supporting itself in a bushy growth 6 to 8 

 feet high. Bright clear rose-pink with salmon at base of petals. 

 PAUL'S SCARLET CLIMBER (H. W.)— Vivid scarlet, shaded 

 crimson, makes a brilliant display for a long period of time in 

 the garden. A wonderful climbing Rose. 

 RED DOROTHY PERKINS, or EXCELSA (W.)— Crimson- 

 scarlet pillar Rose. 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 

 clusters of flowers. The color is intense crimson-maroon, the 

 tips of the petals tinged with scarlet. The finest of all Ramblers.
