WILL BLOOM LUXURIANTLY IN OUR COLDEST CLIMATE 



This family of Roses is most valuable in landscape work where embankments have 

 to be protected so they will not wash away. They make light, willowy canes that 

 spread out and lie close to the ground instead of having an upright growth like the 

 regular hardy climbers. Some should be used to give color, with the type (Wichura- 

 iana) for the white. Excellent for training over rough ground, rocks, 

 and stumps. Two • kinds hug the ground with rooting branches. 

 // you would prefer, we should be glad to select right varieties for you 



-^CORONATION. A lovely Rose to use along with Wichuraiana 

 when planting on banks or terraces. Makes beautiful sprays of 

 exquisite crimson-scarlet flowers, with a dainty flake of white on 

 some of the petals, which are quilled, giving a soft and unique 

 appearance to each cluster. The heads of bloom come in such 

 masses that they almost hide the foliage 



•^•EVANGELINE. For delicacy of coloring this Rose surpasses all 

 other varieties in the climbing class. The flowers are single, 

 white, with the tips of the petals daintily marked with delicate 

 pink. This Rose is fragrant and the flowers are followed by 

 quantities of red berries which remain on the bush until the 

 middle of winter 



■^■HIAWATHA. Bears large clusters of single flowers of intense 

 deep crimson, with the petals shading to pure white at the base; 

 bright, effective, and useful for planting in masses. This Rose 

 holds its intense bright color for a long time and is very spec- 

 tacular when in full bloom

When you plant Wichuraiana Roses on an embank- 

 ment to preserve it from washing away, it pays to 

 plant in pockets of good soil to give the roots a vigor- 

 ous start.

*MRS. M. H. WALSH. • Flowers double and 

 snow-white. Has the same trailing habit as 

 Wichuraiana, making it valuable for covering 

 embankments to keep them from washing away. 

 A remarkable grower, making numerous canes 15 

 feet or more long in a season. We have this Rose 

 on a steep embankment at our office and the 

 Star-size plants we used completely covered the 

 bank in one season. This Rose is known as the 

 Double White Wichuraiana 



*PROF. C. S. SARGENT. Color delicate buff, with 

 the center deep golden yellow. Flowers medium 

 in size and quite fragrant 



^UNIVERSAL FAVORITE. Double Pink Memo- 

 rial. Perfectly double flowers of bright pink. . . . 



•fc WICHURAIANA. • Hardy Single White Memorial 

 Rose. Especially useful for growing on embank- 

 ments, as it grows close to the ground, rooting 

 where the branches touch, so that in time it 

 forms a thick, impenetrable mat. The single 

 white Roses are beau- 

 tiful when in full bloom 

 for the centers are filled 

 with lovely golden an- 

 thers, as shown in the 

 illustration. This grace- 

 ful Rose, when planted 

 along the top of a wall 

 and allowed to fall 

 over, makes a lovely 

 lace effect. The masses 

 of red berries in the 

 fall are charming and 

 stay on the plants to 

 feed the birds until 

 well into winter, i-yr.
