Rose, a cross between Caroline Testout and an un- 

 named 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 re- 

 freshing bright wild-rose pink.

sweetly scented.

 dium size (about 2 inches in diameter), semi-double;

delicate shade of flesh-pink on the outer surface, deepening to

 tection north of Washington, D. C.

flowers, borne evenly and uniformly in the greatest profusion.

 JEAN GIRIN (The ever-blooming Dorothy Perkins )— The 



flowers are similar in form and color to the pink Dorothy Per- 

 kins. The chiei merit of this rose is that after giving a mass of 



bloom in June, like the other climbers, it blooms again. Cut 



off all of the June blooms to help the plant produce more flowers 



during the summer and fall.

the edge of the petals to a very delicate soft tone of pink.

 The flowers upon first opening are the most delicate shade of 

 pink ever seen in a Rose; might be described as a white, delicate 

 flushed pink, changing to rosy-carmine. It gets its name from 

 its many flowers and the variation in coloring. 



VEILCHENBLAU, THE BLUE ROSE (H. M.WThis is a 

 much better Rose than some give it credit for. . It opens a reddish- 

 violet, quickly changing to violet-blue.
