Climbing and trailing looses. 



^\ t>:k'j I Ui'ina or Me/noi lai liwe 



Climbing Clothilde Soupert.— Au invaluable very 

 hardy Rose of clirul.iuu hahlt with exf-eptionally 

 <:lean. healthy handsome foliage. Its hundreds of 

 clusters of wen rnrnied. perfectly double roses are 

 French white with a distinct center of silvery-rose 

 and are prodined the whole summer through. 



Crimson Kambler.— I'roduces a marvelous profu- 

 sion of large clusters of deep crimson semi-double 

 rtowers of great substance, wnich remain a long 

 time. A splendid variety for covering walls, ve- 

 randas, pillars, etc.. being so vigorous in growth 

 as to make shoots of from eight to ten feet during 

 the season: or it may be pegged down or grown in 

 bush f.>rm with rich and striking effect. 



Dorothy Perkins.— A <-harming and very valuable 

 Rose of American origin, producing clear, shell pink 

 Roses in clusters. It is a strong grower, very hardy 

 and a marvelously profuse bloomer. Mr. W. C. 

 Egan. the rosarian says: "I have grown about all 

 the so called Ramblers but none among them can 

 compare with Dorothy Perkins." This rose being 

 superior to the Pink Rambler and of the same color, 

 I have discarded the last named variety. 



Mrs. Lovett.— A double. Itright pink, sweet sr-ented 

 form of Rosa Wichuraiana. The Mrs. Lovett Rose 

 was produced upon our grounds and is one of the 

 many seedlings nf Wichuriana grown by us. This 

 Rose retains all the excellent properties of its par 

 ent and in addition has double flowers*^— two to two 

 and one-half inches in diameter — and are of the 

 most cheerful, bright rosy-pink imaginable. In 

 every other respect it is a true Wichuraiana ; in 

 habit of growth and foliage, hardiness and abund- 

 ance of bloom. Tt is as fragrant as the American 

 Beauty, although its perfume is distinct from that 

 of any other. 



Philadelphia.— A seedling of and an improvement 

 Tipon the glorious Crimson Rambler. It is a still 

 stronger grower, blooms about two weeks earlier, 

 while the flowers and clusters are larger and of a 

 brighter r-rimson color. 



Ruby Queen.— A strong growing and very hardy 

 new r-limbing rose of much value. Its flowers are 

 full and double and a deep ruby-rose color. Very 

 healthy disease-resisting foliage. which remains 

 upon the plant until spring. 



Wichuraiana. Memorlu. Rose.— A species from 

 .lajian and a perfect trailer, hugging the ground 

 closely. It grows from ten to fifteen feet in a sea- 

 son, and is densely furnished with dark green 

 glossy foliage, forming a dense blanket, always 

 clean and perfect and with but few thorns. The 

 flowers are single, pure snowy-white, with bright 

 golden yellow discs and with the fragrance of the 

 Banksia Rose. They are borne in clusters and in 

 such numbers as to fairly envelop the plant. It 

 blooms later than most roses and continues a long 

 time. Succeeds everywhere, and is peculiarly ap- 

 propriate for cemetery planting. (See cut). 



White Eambler and Yellow Rambler.- These two 

 roses are similar in habit to Crimson Rambler, the 

 former producing pure white and the latter clear 

 lemon yellow roses in cluster.

 of the mossy covering of the calyx. They are de- 

 lightfully fragrant. I grow them in colors only,

 every respect and I regret that I shall have to wait 

 until spring before buying as I have no more room 

 for storage. Elsie McFatb.
