HARDY CLIMBING ROSES, continued 



•SILVER MOON. Midseason. (See illustration, page 66.) The flowers are 

 very large, semi-double, and open from primrose buds of pleasing shape to what 

 looks like a fine white clematis with a center of golden anthers. The growth is 

 rampantly vigorous, and the foHage is large, dark green, glossy, and disease- 

 resistant. In northern climates young plants of this Rose need winter protection. 

 Blooms come more freely after the plant is two or three years established. $1 each. 

 . *TAUSENDSCH6n (Thousand Beauties). Early. The round, cup-shaped, 

 double blossoms, borne in clusters, will vary on the plant from white to deep pink 

 at the same time, and there are so many of them that the bush disappears in a 

 mass of rosy beauty. This Rose makes one of the grandest floral decorations you 

 can think of for early June weddings. SI each.

*THE BEACON. Midseason. ^ Blooms are the same type as the famous 

 American Pillar (see color illustration, page 61) but the color is vivid, fiery red. 

 It is most attractive when grown in pillar form. This Red American Pillar is a 

 real novelty as there are too few reds in the climbing class. SI each. 



*VEILCHENBLAU. Midseason. Semi-double purple-rose flowers which turn 

 to steel-blue — an odd color in a Rose. SI each. 



*WICHURAIANA. Very late. (Illustrated below.) This has been used as the 

 parent plant for many of the choicest Wichuraiana hybrid climbers on account of 

 its "varnished" foliage which is practically immune from diseases and insect 

 pests. Particularly useful as a ground-cover on embankments or elsewhere, as it 

 naturally grows close to the ground and roots where the branches touch. Its 

 flowers are of medium size, single, white, and borne amid very beautiful glossy 

 green foliage, in itself attractive the whole season. $1 each; 73 cts. each for 12 or 

 more; 60 cts. each for 25 or more.
