 CLIMBING 

 ROSES, 

 Continued 



Climbing Orleans. — Produces in clusters 

 semi-double geranium red blooms with edges 

 of bright carmine and white centers. 



Crimson Rambler. — Produces a profusion 

 of large clusters of deep crimson semi- 

 double flowers. A splendid variety for cover- 

 ing walls, verandas., etc. Subject to mildew. 



Dorothy Perkins. — An unusually profuse 

 bloomer, giving large clusters of clear rose 

 pink, double flowers which are very lasting. 

 It is a strong grower and very hard}-. A very 

 valuable rose. Each, 60c; dozen, $6.00. 



DR. W. VAN FLEET.— Delicate shell pink, 

 mildly perfumed flowers are produced abun- 

 dantly. The perfect pointed buds are large and 

 as perfect as though greenhouse-grown, and 

 the open blooms are large and most attractive. 

 The center is built high and the outer petals 

 are beautifully cupped. 



Ernest Grandpier. — Blooms are glistening 

 cream}- white, double, with a pointed center 

 and resemble a Cape Jasmine. Splendid for 

 cutting. 



EXCELSA (Red Dorothy Perkins).—?; - 



ers brilliant crimson; plant of Wichuraiana 

 habit and foliage. It has the vigor and pro- 

 fuse bloom of the Dorothy Perkins, and its 

 double flowers of good size are borne in clus- 

 ters of thirty to forty each. Really an improved 

 Crimson Rambler. Each 60c. ; dozen, $6.00. 



FRAU OCTAVIE HESSE.— In both habit 

 of growth and mildew resistance this very 

 much resembles Ernest Grandpier. The color, 

 however, is a real deep pink, almost cerise. 



TAUSEXDSCHOEN 



or Thousand Beauties 



Hiawatha. — A sturdy variety pro- 

 Si ducing abundant single flowers of a 

 * brilliant ruby carmine with a clear 

 j0 white eye and a mass of golden 

 j stamens. 



Lady Gay. — A profuse bloomer of 

 f soft cherry pink flowers which fade 



to blush white. When in flower with 

 its cherry pink buds, soft pink flowers and rich 

 green foliage, it presents a picture beyond 

 words to describe. 



PAUL'S SCARLET CLIMBER.— A very 

 fine English sort of recent introduction. It 

 surely has won a place for itself, with its large, 

 brilliant scarlet flowers produced in glorious 

 profusion. Though but semi-double, the flow- 

 ers are of surprisingly large size and are borne 

 long after the June bloomers have seen their 

 day. Winner of many highest awards, includ- 

 ing Gold Medal of National Rose Society of 

 England. Heavy 2-year-old field-grown plants. 

 $1.00 each; $10.00 per dozen. 



Philadelphia. — A seedling of the Crimson 

 Rambler, but blooms earlier and with larger, 

 more brilliant flowers. 



Silver Moon. — A rose in a class by itself. 

 So strong a grower, it is a giant. Has abun- 

 dant innumerable very beautiful nankeen yel- 

 low pointed buds in June, which open into 

 pure silver white blossoms, four inches or more 

 in diameter. 



Tausendschoen (Thousand Beauties). — A 

 fine rose indeed. From early June until well 

 into July it is literally covered with clusters 

 of semi-double flowers of varied shades of deep 

 to light pink and white. (Illustrated above). 



Vondel— Many clusters of clear light pink 

 flowers with creamy white centers are pro- 

 duced from June until frost. A true "Ever- 

 blooming Rose." 



Wichuraiana (Memorial Rose). — A perfect 

 trailer with dense dark glossy green foliage 

 and single pure white flowers. Each 60c: 

 dozen. $6.00. 



White Dorothy Perkins. — A sport of the 

 popular Dorothy Perkins, and like it in every 

 way except its flowers are white. Free in 

 bloom and with disease-resistant foliage.
