RAMBLER ROSES 



NEW CRIMSON RAMBLER, "PHILADELPHIA." 



The New American Crimson Rambler 

 "PHILADELPHIA" 



The Philadelphia Crimson Rambler is the product of 

 Crimson Rambler and the splendid hybrid perpetual rose, 

 Victor Hugo, one of the best and most brilliant of the hybrid 

 perpetual class, and it is recommended strongly both for out- 

 door planting and for forcing. 



The "Philadelphia" Crimson Rambler differs from the 

 old variety in three important particulars: (1) The color is 

 brighter, deeper and more intense: (2) the flowers are per- 

 fectly double to the centre, very durable and of excellent 

 substance; (3) the blooms are almost entirely free from the 

 faded or washed-out appearance so frequently seen in the 

 flowers of the old kind. It is a good, healthy grower, a free 

 and abundant bloomer, producing grand clusters of intensely 

 brilliant, perfectly double flowers. 20c each ; 2-year, 

 by express, 40c; 3-year, 81.00. 



DOROTHY PERKINS. This is a splendid new hardy 

 climber, grows 10 to 15 feet in a season, blooms in immense 

 clusters like the Crimson Rambler, but the blooms are more 

 double and of a beautiful shell-pink passing to deep rose ; 

 makes large-pointed buds and is a very pleasing and satisfac- 

 tory rose for general planting. Price, 20c each; 2-year, 40c 



ELECTRA. A hardy yellow climbing rose has long 

 been greatly desired by rose-lovers everywhere. This one 

 comes highly recommended by the English growers, who 

 claim that it is a strong, rapid grower and very free bloomer, 

 bearing large double yellow roses in great profusion, and 

 undoubtedly the finest hardy yellow climbing rose yet 

 produced. Price, 20c. each; 2-year, 40c.
