 and Old 



HARDY CLIMBING ROSES 



of Various Types 



Price, one-year, 25 cents each ; except where noted ; two-year, 50 cents each. 



ALBERTINE (H. CI.) — Vermilion buds, coppery chamois yellow 

 flowers passing to coppery-rose rather loosely formed. Blooms 

 in loose clusters. Leathery, shining foliage. 



ALIDA 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 

 feetlong 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 of 

 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 

 fragrance 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 

 medium 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. 

 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 col- 

 lection. 



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 keep- 

 ing qualities. 



CRIMSON RAMBLER (C P.)— Bright crimson flowers pro- 

 duced in large clusters of pyramidal form; grand variety for 

 pillars and arches and to train over porches; also makes a fine 

 attractive 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. 



DR. HUEY (H. W.) — Bud medium size; flower medium size 

 (about 2 inches in diameter), semi-double; borne in clusters of 

 3 or 4 on good stems. Color dark crimson-maroon, of great 

 brilliancy; stamens and anthers light yellow. Blooms con- 

 tinuously for three weeks. 



DR. W. VAN FLEET (H. W.) — Flowers when open run four 



inches and over in diameter. The center is built high, petals 



' beautifully undulated and cupped. The color is a remarkable 



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



rosy-flesh in the center. 



EMILY GRAY (H. TV.) — A new yellow climbing Rose with glossy 

 undulated holly-like foliage. The buds are long and flowers of 

 golden yellow are large and semi-double. Needs winter pro- 

 tection north of Washington, D. C 



EUGENE JACQUET — Handsome truss of fragrant, cherry-red 

 flowers, borne evenly and uniformly in the greatest profusion. 

 It holds the flower unusually long — the color improves with age. 



GARDENIA (H. W.) — Bright yellow, cream color when open; 

 very fragrant early flowering. This Is the hardy Marechal 

 Kiel; double yellow flowering. 



HEART "OF GOLD (H. V.) — Bud crimson size; flower medium 

 size, single, open lasting, crimson shading to white center with 

 yellow stamens, borne in clusters on medium long stems. No 

 two-year to offer. 



HIAWATHA (H. W.) — Its flowers are about one and one-half 

 inches across, and produced in long, pendulous sprays, with 

 frequently from forty to fifty flowers on a spr'ay. In color it 

 is brilliant ruby-carmine, with a clear white eye and a mass 

 of golden stamens. 



JACOTTE (H. W.) — Bud large, orange and 3'ellow; flower large, 

 semi-double, open, cupped, very lasting; deep coppery-yellow, 

 tinted coppery-red; borne several together on long strong stem; 

 fragrant. 



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

 ers are similar in form and color to the pink Dorothy Perkins. 

 The chief 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. 



LADY GAY (W.) — Flowers of a deep cherry-pink, shading on 

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



MARIE GOUCHAULT (E. Turbat & Co.)— Growth very vigor- 

 ous, reddish green wood, nearly thornless, abundant glossy- 

 green foliage, large elongated clusters of 30 to 40 double flowers, 

 as large as those of Dorothy Perkins, fine lighted red, passing 

 to bright salmon-pink, produce a great effect. Very early 

 variety flowering three weeks before Dorothy Perkins, very 

 lasting and resistant to disease. 



MARY LOVETT (H. TV.)— In this Dr. Van Fleet Has brought 

 out another Wichuraiana Hybrid, a cross between a seedling 

 Wichuraiana and Kaiserin Augusta Victoria and termed a 

 "White Dr. Van Fleet." Loses foliage early. 



MARY WALLACE— This is Dr. Van Fleet's masterpiece. HaTdy 

 on a line with Washington, 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 peiiod 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. The color is intense crimson-maroon, the tips of the 

 petals tinged with scarlet. 



ROSARY (Pink Tausendschoen)— This is a bright pink form of 

 Tausendschoen. A grand Rose from any standpoint. 



SHOWER OF GOLD (H. W.)— The color is a deep golden- 

 yellow, with orange shadings in the center. This fills the "long 

 felt want" for a "Yellow Rambler." 



SILVER MOON (H. W.) — 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. 



TAUSENDSCHOEN, or THOUSAND BEAUTIES (H. M.)— 

 The flowers upon first opening are the most delicate shade of 

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

 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.)— This is a much 

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

 violet, quickly changing to violet-blue. 



WHITE DOROTHY PERKINS (W.)— A white climber that 

 in every way is the equal if not superior to Crimson Rambler 

 as a red, and Dorothy Perkins as a Pink. This Rose has no 

 rival as a white climber.
