NEW ROSES. 



Crimson Rambler— The wonderful new Japanese 

 Rose, by far the most important and valua- 

 ble acquisition of recent years. The 

 Crimson Rambler is unquestionably an 

 acquisition, a novelty of high order, and 

 most distinct in its characteristics. It is a 

 running or climbing rose of vigorous habit, 

 strong and rapid growth, with handsome, 

 shining foliage, and produces in marvel- 

 ous abundance clusters of the brightest 

 crimson semi-double roses. Its clustered 

 form, its brilliancy, the abundance of its 

 bloom, and the great length of time the 

 flowers remain on the plant without fall- 

 ing or losing their brilliancy, are qualities 

 which will make this new claimant for 

 admiration an assured favorite. For 

 verandas, walls, pillars, and fences it is a 

 most suitable plant. If grown in beds 

 and pegged down it produces marvelous 

 heads of bloom, or it can be grown in bush 

 form and thus become a most striking 

 object. We planted this rose out of doors, 

 along with Hybrid Perpetuals and other 

 hardy roses, and the plants came through 

 the winter even better than many of the 

 hardy varieties, remaining fresh and green 

 to the very tips. But it is not only for 

 out-door use that it is valuable : it can 

 also be employed most satisfactorily for 

 decorating in-doors when grown in pots, 

 and for forcing at Easter time when pot- 

 grown specimens bring high prices. We 

 are satisfied that this is the greatest rose 

 novelty of recent years. Dormant field- 

 grown plants. 20 cts.
