Hardy OimbingRoses 

 are brilliantly beauti- 

 ful, in shades of red, 

 pink, yellow, and in 

 pure white. For weeks 

 at a tirr/e they present a 

 gorgeous display of color 

 that is obtainable from 

 no other hardy climb- 

 ing vine, and the foliage 

 is lovely after the flow- 

 ers are gone. You get a 

 thousandfold return for 

 an investment in these 

 Roses. 



Order No. 3900 



March 23, 1926. 

 All the roses and other 

 plants which I have got 

 from you at different times 

 have done wonderfully. 

 My Silver Moon is a lovely 

 show, and I now have a 

 perfect hedge of it- — all 

 from the one bush I bought 

 from you five years ago. — 

 Mrs.T. K. H., Greenville, 

 Texas. 



Bess Lovett. Lovely for cutting 

 PRICES ( UNLESS OTHERWISE 



IF YOU want Rose blooms by the thousands — and most people do — we 

 suggest that you plant Hardy Climbing Roses. These vigorous varieties 

 will grow canes often 6 to 15 feet long in a season, on which the blossoms 

 will appear the following spring. The large-flowered kinds will give you bushels 

 of flowers on long stems, so that you can cut quantities to sell, to use, or to 

 give away and then scarcely miss them. Plant a Hardy Climbing Rose this fall 

 at each spare fence-post you have and provide for yourself plenty of Roses at 

 very small expense. 



Cover arches and arbors with them, grow them in pillar form by tying them 

 to straight poles 6 to 7 feet high, or use them for covering old stumps. Grow 

 Climbing Roses on your garage and make it a beauty-spot instead of an eyesore. 

 The large-flowered kinds are marked L.; the smaller, many-flowered kinds, such as 

 Dorothy Perkins are marked M. Those not marked either L. or M. come midway 

 between these types. 



•ALIDA LOVETT. (L.) One of Dr. Van Fleet's later productions. Flowers are 

 cup-shaped, large, and quite double; color tender shell-pink. $1 each. 



• CLIMBING AMERICAN BEAUTY. (L.) The name describes this Rose, but does 

 not express the extraordinary quality of display given by its rosy crimson, 

 sweet-scented flowers in its first burst of bloom. The canes of one summer will 

 next season cover themselves with great masses of lovely flowers. $1 each. 



•AMERICAN PILLAR. (M.) Blooms in mid- June with great clusters of single 

 flowers about 2 inches across, in shadings of carmine and rosy pink to 

 white in the center, where they meet a cluster of long golden yellow 

 stamens. A hedge of this fragrant beauty is a sight you will remember 

 with pleasure, always. $1 each. 



•AVIATEUR BLERIOT. Produces charming saffron buds, opening into 

 small, most attractive, double, apricot and lighter Roses of exquisite 

 magnolia fragrance. The foliage is glossy and disease-resistant. $1 ea. 



•BESS LOVETT. (L.) (See illustration.) Shapely, double fragrant 

 flowers of clear light crimson, borne on long stems, fine for cutting. 

 It blooms right after Climbing American Beauty. $1 each. 



•BONNIE PRINCE. (M.) New. A very beautiful snow-white climber 

 which flowers in loose, artistic clusters and is ten days earlier in bloom 

 than White Dorothy. $1.50 each, 10 for $12. 



•CHRISTINE WRIGHT. (L.) A strong climbing Rose with double, 

 bright, clear wild-rose pink flowers, 3 }i to 4 in. across, borne singly and 

 in clusters. This Rose often has some blooms in the fall. $1 each. 



• CORONATION. (M.) Produces beautiful sprays of quite double, 

 crimson-scarlet flowers, some of the petals of which have a dainty 

 flake of white and are quilled, so that the flower itself is wholly unique. 

 $1 each. 



•DOROTHY PERKINS. (M.) An American-grown Rose of wide dis- 

 tribution and great merit because of its vigor, dependability, and the 

 beauty of its perfectly double, clear shell-pink flowers, the petals of 

 which are attractively crinkled. It is subject to mildew in damp 

 situations. $1 each. 



•DR. HUEY. Color is an intense dark crimson-scarlet, comparing only 

 with the Hybrid Tea Rose, Chateau de Clos Vougeot. Its fading 

 blooms turn brown in hot sun, before the petals fall. The flowers are 

 medium-sized, semi-double, and so closely spaced on the plant in its 

 June burst of bloom as almost to conceal the excellent foliage. It is 

 superb when grown on a post or pillar. Awarded the much-coveted 

 Hubbard Gold Medal. $1 each. 



NOTED), *2-YEAR, FIELD -GROWN, STAR SIZE ROSES, 

 $1 each, 10 for $9, 100 for $80. Delivery not prepaid.
