DECORATION—STAR CLIMBERS 
| Saale SCOT Starr Everblooming Climbers give you the showiest sight imaginable at re- 
; markably low cost. For about 25c a foot, you can cover a fence or wall or 
trellis with flowers. Use them to screen out unsightly areas, or to touch up 
a drab spot with beautiful color. Star Everblooming Climbers are hardy, 
vigorous and long-lived. Remember—don’t prune away first-year canes, 
because Climbers produce flowers mostly on old wood. Prune to keep in 
bounds or to remove dead wood. We list only the finest kinds—and there 
are not too many of them. These, like all Star Roses, are, of course, guaranteed 
to bloom. 
BLAZE 
(Improved—Repeat-Blooming) This is the brilliant red which you see every- 
where on fences, porches, trellises and arbors. This improved strain now gives 
you colorful masses of flowers in June and again in fall, with some flowers in 
between. The bush is hardy and enormously vigorous, producing long, willowy 
canes which are easily trained. It grows like mad, but a touch of pruning will 
keep it where you want it. You couldn’t have a brighter one. $2 ea.3 3 or 
more, $1.75 ea. 
RED EMPRESS 
Everblooming. Plant Pat. 1573. This is a strong-growing, sturdy plant which 
is handsome with fine foliage and bie, Hybrid Tea-like flowers of rich red. It 
has been gaining in popularity ever since we introduced it a few years ago. 
The color is a bit deeper than that of Lancaster, but the blooms are the same 
impressive 5-inchers. They come plentifully and they smell good, and what 
more could anyone want? Good flowers for cutting. Yes, they are! And you 
can cut a lot of them if you like. and still the bush won’t miss them. This is a 
very worthwhile climbing rose which will provide color and beauty anywhere 
you plant it—and in short order, too. $2.50 ea.; 3 or more, $2.20 ea.

SHOWERS 
& Everblooming. Plant Pat. 1557. 
ASBs T think that the two finest yellow 
climbers are this one and Peace (de- 
scribed on the next page). Nonetheless, 
they are two different roses, each with 
its own qualities. Golden Showers is an 
All-America winner with large daffodil- 
yellow flowers. It produces some of 
them in the first year, and many more 
thereafter, the plant at that time 
literally covering itself with golden 
blooms. Theyre a good 5 inches 
across, and you can imagine how they 
make the landscape shine. Another 
wonderful characteristic of Golden 
Showers is its amazingly vigorous 
growth habit. So strong are the thick 
canes that the plant will stand alone 
without support. It can thus be used 
as a free-standing shrub or as a climber, 
as you choose. The Golden Showers 
on my back fence was burned severely 
several years ago by a neighbor’s trash- 
fire. I thought the rose was done for; 
but I pruned off the burned wood any- 
way, and the plant came right back as 
good as new. As I said—lots of strength 
and vigor. $2.50 ea.; 3 or more, 
$2.20 ea.
