CRIMSON RAMBI.ER. 



After six years' trial this variety has made a record which 

 places it at the head of the list of Hardy Climbing Roses. 

 It is a vigorous grower, making shoots 8 to 10 feet in height 

 in a single season, and when in bloom commands admira- 

 tion by the gorgeous display of its brilliant crimson clusters 

 of blossoms, eacli cluster a bouquet in itself. Within the 

 past few years we heard of several cases where upwards of 

 ■8,000 blo^^soms have been produced by a single plant. 

 This marvelous prodigality of bloom is not unusual 

 with it, as it succeeds everywhere. As a pot plant, 

 it is unequaled for decorative purposes, thousands of 

 pots of it in bloom being sold at Easter. The blooms 

 remain on the plant for a great length of time with- 

 out losing their brightness; the foliage is also retained, to a great 

 €xtent, during the winter, maUing the plant almost evergreen It 

 is perfectly hardy in all parts of the country.
