•AMERICAN PILLAR SSWjoSlS: 



Decided, 1918, by a vote of The National Rose Society of England as the "Most 

 Popular Climbing Rose in Existence." 



Begins blooming here early in June. Single flowers of rich, rosy pink approaching 

 brilliant carmine, just a glint of white in the center and long stamens of beautiful 

 golden yellow. The blossoms — four to six layers deep — are arranged in large- 

 flowered clusters all over the plant. We estimated certainly not less than 3,000 

 flowers on one young bush. A tremendous grower, with its thick vigorous canes, 

 it is without doubt one of the most valuable single climbing Roses in existence 

 and is unsurpassed for planting singly or as a hedge. In the autumn it is again 

 a brilliant show of color with its pretty clusters of bright red seed-hips which re- 

 main on the bush until well into winter. It has stout, thick, curving branches 

 rather thorny, but furnished with an abundance of glossy dark green leaves. (See 

 prices below.) 



AMERICAN PILLAR— 50 BLOOMS IN ONE CLUSTER 



The American Pillar rose I got from you had 50 blooms in one cluster and the large vine was 

 covered with clusters. People who saw it said it was the prettiest thing they ever saw. — L. A. B., 

 Volant. Pa., March 28, 1922. 



^SILVER MOON. The grandest white climbing Rose. Flowers are very 

 large, semi-double, and when open resemble a white clematis with a center of 

 golden anthers. A most vigorous grower with large, dark green, shiny foliage. 

 Quite different from all other climbing Roses. (See prices below.) 



-fcLADY GAY. Flowers are cherry-pink and 

 borne in loose, graceful clusters. A beau- 

 tiful Rose for arches, arbors, pergolas, etc. 

 (See prices below.)

American Pillar makes strong canes that grow 

 upright several feet before bending over, therefore 

 a magnificent hedge can be made with this variety 

 without the necessity of providing a support. 



In June the entire hedge becomes covered from 

 base to tip with the exquisite, delicately fragrant 

 blooms, entrancingly beautiful and very lasting. 

 See quantity prices below. 



•CLIMBING AMERICAN BEAUTY 



Color rosy crimson, almost identical with its pollen parent, American Beauty, and 

 with the same exquisite fragrance, a quality rarely found in climbing Roses. Of strong 

 habit of growth. Will thrive and bloom in almost any situation where a climbing or 

 pillar Rose is desired. Flowers 3 to 4 inches in diameter, finely formed on long stems, 

 are produced in great profusion and are splendid for cutting. When well established, 

 this Rose makes tremendous growth, sending up several canes from the base of the plant 

 during the growing season, each cane from 10 to 15 feet in length. These new canes 

 produce the bloom spikes that will appear the next season covered with masses of lovely, 

 rosy crimson Roses, on long stems, suitable for cutting and dozens of Roses can be cut 

 from a single plant without being missed. (See prices below.) 



CLIMBING AMERICAN BEAUTY BLOOMED ON DECORATION DAY 



You may be interested to know that my Climbing American Beauty was at its best last Decoration 

 Day in Kansas City, Mo., and that the Dr. Van Fleet had about two dozen roses in bloom on that day. — 

 Miss S. H., Kansas City, Mo., October 16, 1922.
