Star Climbers 



Offer You 



Versatility and 



Beauty 



Evcrblooming Climbers give 

 you the showiest sight imaginable. 

 You can use them to beautify a fence 

 or wall or trellis or to screen out un- 

 sightly areas or to touch up a drab 

 spot with an exciting show of color. 

 Not only can you enjoy the beauty of 

 Climbers out of doors, but you can 

 cut beautiful single blooms as well as 

 colorful sprays for indoor arrange- 

 ments. 



One bit of advice . . . don't 

 prune away first-year canes, because 

 Climbers produce flowers mostly on 

 old wood. Just prune to keep in 

 bounds or to remove dead wood. And, 

 too, don't expect much bloom the first 

 year of planting. It takes a full 

 season to develop the canes necessary 

 to provide the bloom. First year 

 bloom is only an added bonus. 



Remember, too, that while you 

 can train climbing roses to almost 

 any shape, they do need some sup- 

 port and tying — so plan accordingly 

 before you plant.

OTHER STAR CLIMBERS 



CITY OF YORK. (Tantau.) Not a repeat bloomer, but it 

 is the finest white climbing rose there is. In the spring it is 

 a solid mass of lovely, very fragrant, creamy white blooms. 

 Flowers are semi-double and measure 3 inches across. Ex- 

 cellent foliage, vigorous and trouble free. The fact that 

 this rose was brought back by popular demand is proof of 

 its ability to please. 



$2.25 ea. — 3 or more, $2 ea. 



CLAIR MATIN. (Everblooming.) (The House of Meil- 

 land.) Plant Pat. 2186. Provides an abundance of flowers in 

 large clusters — each rose a 3-inch, semi-double pink jewel; 

 dozens of them to the stem. Extra hardy and extra vigorous. 

 Clair Matin blooms continuously and has some flowers the 

 first year. With its beautiful thick foliage, Clair Matin is an 

 exceptional climbing rose for screening or use as a back- 

 ground. 



$3 ea. — 3 or more, $2.65 ea. 



CLIMBING PEACE. (Repeat blooming.) (Brady.) Plant 

 Pat. 932. Has splendid yellow and pink-tinged flowers just 

 like the famous Hybrid Tea (see page 31). Needs plenty of 

 room to grow and don't expect a great many flowers for the 

 first two or three years. Once started, it's magnificent. Just 

 imagine a Climber with huge blooms on it the size of the 

 Peace rose. Great for cutting, too. 



$2.50 ea.— 3 or more, $2.20 ea. 



CORAL DAWN. (Everblooming.) (Boerner.) Plant Pat. 

 1117. The soft, beautiful 43^ inch rose-pink flowers cover the 



bush in clusters of from 3 to 20 lovely blooms that are large 

 and contain 30 to 35 petals, cup-shaped with good substance. 

 This is a good grower with rich, leathery foliage and nice 

 fragrance. 



$3 ea. — 3 or more, $2.65 ea. 



DON JUAN. (Everblooming.) (Malandrone.) Plant Pat. 

 1864. This pillar-type rose is a sensation from all aspects. 

 The large, neatly formed buds open to large, fully double, 

 5-inch flowers of rich, dark red. Blooms continuously and 

 has a very strong, pleasing fragrance. Very hardy. 



$3 ea. — 3 or more, $2.65 ea. 



WHITE DAWN. (Longley.) One of the best white repeat 

 blooming Climbers, although it is rather shy on bloom. 

 Blooms are pure white, semi-double with gardenia-like form 

 and come in delightful, fragrant clusters. A good, vigorous 

 grower. 



$2.25 ea. — 3 or more, $2 ea.
