"/ am sending you a picture of my Rose-arches, all 

 planted with Conard-Pyle Roses," writes Mrs. Bayard, 

 who planted Climbing Roses on the fences around her 

 property, and when this space was exhausted she had 

 Rose-arches made; in addition she has Climbing Roses 

 on poles planted all through her orchard. "If a few are 

 enjoyable," she reasoned, "why not have many of 

 them?" 



Remember, if you happen to be a bit limited for land 



area, that it requires but little space for the roots of a 



Climber, while upward the sky is your limit. Of course, 



the Rose will need support to tie to, but, given that, 



you are ready. Often from a single plant you get more 



show of bloom at one time than from an entire 



Rose-bed of two dozen bush Roses. Mass effects 



at little cost are yours with only a few plants. 



Why have all the color in beds and below knee- 

 Ievel to keep your eyes downcast? Plan the uplook, 

 too, and around you make real garden pictures with 

 Climbing Roses on poles, archways, gateways, and 

 broad fans of beauty on trellises. Climbers offer end- 

 less opportunities for graceful festooning along a fence, 

 over a favorite entrance, covering garages, and bringing 

 color en masse to beautify otherwise ugly or vacant 

 spaces. .^
