HARDY CLIMBING ROSES, continued 



*BONNIE PRINCE. Early. Beautiful snow-white flowers of same form as 

 Tausendschon. Exquisite when grown as a specimen on a strong post, as shown in 

 illustration below. $1 each. 



*CHAMISSO. Recurrent. Buds are cream-yellow, with carmine markings, 

 changing, as the bloom opens, to cream-yellow, suffused with apple-blossom-pink. 

 $1.50 each. 



^ *CHRISTINE WRIGHT. Early. Produces a great burst of large, double, 

 wild-rose-pink flowers, borne individuafly and in clusters. By some considered 

 the best pure pink among the early-flowering hardy chmbers. After the great 

 display in early June, casual blooms give a dash of color until late falL $1 each. 

 *DR. HUEY. Midseason. (See color iflustration, page 61.) A hardy chmbing 

 Rose of unique color — dark crimson-maroon shading to almost white in the 

 center, wdth golden stamens that add an artistic touch. The flowers are rather 

 large and semi-double, borne in greatest profusion for an unusually long season. 

 It has no rival in color in the northern and middle states, but the hot sun does 

 burn the petals, so the fading flowers should be removed. Awarded by the Ameri- 

 can Rose Society, the much-coveted Hubbard Gold Medal for the best Rose in 

 five years. $1 each. 



DR. W. VAN FLEET. Early. The Topnotch Hardy Climber. Stands No, i in 

 the list of hardy climbing Roses, by vote of the members of the American Rose Society, 

 October, 1926. See illustration in color on page 63. The color is pure, dainty apple- 

 blossom-pink, and the buds, with their long individual stems look much like Roses 

 from a greenhouse. Rampantly vigorous is this climber, quite able to pro- 

 duce each year many canes more than 

 10 feet long and carrying tough, rich 

 green foliage to support the abundant 

 showing of exquisite June flowers, 

 utterly unlike any other known hardy 

 climbing Rose. Its beauty you can 

 bring indoors, carry to a friend, decor- 

 ate a church, or bring cheer to a 

 hospital, for you should harvest a 

 thousand or more beautiful long-stem- 

 med blooms every year after the second 

 season. When the blooms have been 

 left on, brilliant red berries decorate 

 the plant in November. $1 each. 



More Than 4,000 Blooms from One Bush. 

 "It Is a Wonder" 



I cut more than 4,000 Roses from my Dr. Van 

 Fleet bush last year. I bought the bush as a 

 two-year-old, about three years ago, from your 

 Company. It is a wonder. — J. D. N., Wash- 

 ington, D. C. 



Won the Blue Ribbon 



Order No. 1542-26 April iq, IQ27 



My father, Mr. H. K., some five or six years 

 ago, bought from you a Van FIeet_ Rose. It 

 was planted on the east side of a chicken wire 

 fence, some 5 feet high and 25 feet long and 

 now covers the fence — both sides are beautiful, 

 simply covered with hundreds and hundreds of 

 Roses. Each spring it is such a beautiful sight 

 that I put a dozen of the Roses and buds in 

 our Rose Show for home gardens. Dad and I 

 were surprised and delighted to get the BJue 

 Ribbon on the Van Fleet as the best climbing 

 Rose at the show. — Mrs. G. B., Austin, Texas.
