THE NEW HARDY CLIMBING ROSES— Concluded 



SHOWER OF GOLD — This variety produces masses of flowers in 

 large clusters. The color is a deep golden-yellow, with orange 

 shadings in the center. Enormous lateral branches are pro- 

 duced, which are densely clad with glossy green foliage that re- 

 sists disease. This fills the "long-felt want" for a hardy yellow 

 Climbing Rose. One-year plants, 20 cents each; 3 for 55 

 cent, 12 for $2.00; two-year plants, 40 cents each, 3 for 

 $1.15 12 for $4.45. 



SI LVER MOON — Flowers very large, four and one-half inches 

 and over in diameter. Pure white in color; petals of great sub- 

 stance, beautifully cupped, forming a clematis-like flower. The 

 large bunch of yellow stamens in the center adds to its attractive- 

 ness. 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. One-year 

 plants, 35 cents each; two-year plants, 70 cents each. 



TAUSENDSCHOEN, or THOUSAND BEAUTIES— A Climbing 

 Rose that comes to us from Germany. _ The flowers upon first 

 opening are the most delicate shade of pink ever seen in a Rose ; 

 might be described as a white delicate pushed pink, changing 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. One-year plants, 20 cents each ; 3 for 65 cents, 

 12 for $2.00; two-year plants 40 cents each, 3 for $1.15, 

 12 for $4.45. 



VEILCHENBLAU (The Wonderful New Blue Rose.)— This is a 

 Rambler, and will thrive anywhere, 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. It first opens a 

 pink color, quickly changing to a decided violet blue. When the 

 plant is in full bloom it presents a startling effect. One-year 

 plants 20 cents each, 3 for 55 cents, 12 for $2.00; two-year 

 plants 40 cents each, 3 for $1.15, 12 for $4.45. 



YVONNE, (Wich.) (Frank Cant & Co.)— This is a very lovely 

 shell-pink, colored rose of the Lady Godiva type. A vigorous 

 grower, with large, upright trusses of bloom', lasting well, it will 

 soon find its way into every garden. The exhibit staged in a 

 large vase, was quite one of the features of the tent. It has also 

 been awarded the Cory Cup as the best new seedling of climbing 

 rose originated by a British raiser during the year. In Com- 

 merce. One-year plants, 75 cents each;* no two-year 

 to offer. f
