3 Queen Roses 3 
A Choice Trio of Hardy Climbers 
If you live North where roses sometimes Win- 
ter-kill, you will be delighted with these perfectly 
hardy Queen Roses. They are loaded down in 
the early Spring with the loveliest and most beau-

across, full, double and deliciously fragrant. Every 
one who has tried them praises them, and we con-

roses we ever introduced. For planting along a 
wire fence, stone wall, trellis, etc., they are unsur- 
passed, and where planted together the three col- 
ors harmonize beautifully.
