Other Hardy Bush Roses 



Price (except as noted), heavy two-year-old plants, each, 75c; dozen, $7.50. 



ROSA HUGONIS 



Spectacular in its exotic beauty. A many 

 branched shrub, growing 6 to 8 feet tali, rear- 

 ing slender sprays in all directions, gracefully 

 arching beneath loads of bright yellow, single 

 flowers, an inch and a half in diameter. The 

 flowers are borne on the previous season's 

 growth and appear very early in the spring, be- 

 fore the foliage. Later in the season, it throws 

 up many new branches of a beautiful red color, 

 which makes the shrub a garden attraction dur- 

 ing the entire growing season. Extra strong field- 

 grown plants, each, $1.25; dozen, $12.50. 



PERSIAN YELLOW 



Small, double flowers of intense golden yel- 

 low, produced along the canes from late spring 

 through early summer. A splendid variety.

These have very heavy, almost leather-like foli- 

 age; the calix of each flower is surrounded thick- 

 ly with mossy sepals. They belong to the hardiest 

 of the species, form impenetrable hedges; quite 

 free bloomers; flowers very fragrant.

THE Climbers, or Ramblers, not only afford a burst of bloom upon trellises, over 

 fences and hedges, against a porch or entrance, but, having attractive foliage, they 

 are an object of beauty throughout the entire season. No home is properly planted 

 without a liberal display of Climbing Roses. It was 

 our pleasure and great honor to have as a near 

 neighbor for many years the late Dr. Van Fleet, 

 whose work in improving Climbing Roses made him 

 famous. As a natural consequence of his 

 many years of study and experiment, his 

 hybrids have established for themselves a 

 pre-eminent place. You will find the best 

 of them listed in the following pages, 10 

 and 11, we particularly directing your 

 attention to the three Lovett Sisters, de- 

 scribed on next page. 



Through intimate contact with leaders 

 in the field and careful attention to cultural 

 requisites, we can offer a collection of Climb- 

 ing Roses, each proved to be the best of its par- 

 ticular color or type. The conditions they must 



meet in your gardens were anticipated by the ,^,,r.^^
