FALL . 1939 



These vigorous-growing Roses are especially valuable for the great quantity 

 of bloom produced at one time. Use these abundant-bloom Climbers on fences, 

 arches, arbors, tree-stumps, and pergolas. Anyone with even a small space 

 in a sunny location can have one or more Climbers blooming in the most delight- 

 ful way by planting them at 8-foot uprights. Train the canes of your Climbing 

 Roses horizontally, while they are young and pliable, and the plants will bloom 

 more profusely. 



The letters after the names indicate the type of growth: C, Climbers. Vigorous varieties 

 that make massive canes. They keep on climbing. Prune only dead wood and surplus growth. 

 Pillar. Roses that grow only 7 to 10 feet. Cl.H.T., Climbing Hybrid Teas.
