J. T. LOVETT, LITTLE SILVER, N. J. 



HARDY CLIMBING AND TRAILING ROSES 



Strong field-grown plant, each, 60c.; dozen, $6.00, except as noted. 



ALIDA LOVETT.— This may be described 

 in brief by saying it is an improved Dr. Van 

 Fleet. In habit it is quite like the popular Van 

 Fleet, but with larger and more beautiful mil- 

 dew-proof foliage. 



Both buds and flowers are large; are of ideal 

 form; are held on stiff stems a foot and a half 

 to two feet long, and the color is a lively bright 

 shell pink with shadings of rich sulphur at the 

 base of petals — a combination that is both novel 

 and beautiful. It is very much brighter and 

 more cheerful in color, with larger flowers, 

 than those of the justly popular Dr. Van Fleet 

 Rose. 



The plant is of strong growth, a free bloomer 

 and of ironclad hardihood; flowering for a 

 long season. It is also quite fragrant. Price, 

 each, $1.50; dozen. $15.00. 



American Pillar. — Beyond compare as a gor- 

 geous climber. Its very vigorous, rapid growth 

 and heavy, glossy, mildew-proof foliage make 

 it an ideal covering for arbors, etc. When in 

 bloom, immense clusters of rosy pink single 

 blossoms of large size cover the entire plant. 



BESS LOVETT.— The most fragrant of all 



climbing roses. Of very strong growth, with 

 such luxuriant, beautiful glossy foliage it is a 

 most attractive plant at all times. Each year 

 innumerable clusters of quite large double, full, 

 clear bright red blossoms make it a veritable 

 show. They are produced in profusion on long, 

 stiff stems like the Dr. Van Fleet and last a 

 long time after cutting. Entirely hardy. Strong 

 fleld-grown plants, each, $1.00; dozen, $10.00. 



Aviateur Bleriot. — Saffron-yellow flowers, 

 with centers of golden yellow, are produced in 

 clusters. A vigorous grower and quite the 

 finest climbing rose of its color. 



Christine Wright. — Of strong growing habit, 

 with large, dark-green foliage, immune to dis- 

 ease. The double flowers are very large, of 

 perfect form, bright rosy pink, beautiful in bud 

 and when full blown. 



Climbing American Beauty. — Of the same 

 color and fragrance as the American Beauty, 

 but smaller. A profuse bloomer and a vigorous 

 grower. Each, 75c.; dozen, $7.50. 



Climbing Clothilde Soupert. — A truly ever- 



blooming climbing rose. Loose clusters of 

 large French white blossoms, with centers of 

 silvery rose, are produced for a long season. 



Climbing Orleans. — Produces in clusters 

 semi-double geranium red blooms with edges 

 of bright carmine and white centers. 



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 hardy. A very 

 valuable rose. 



DR. W. VAN FLEET.— Dehcate 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. Each, 75c.; dozen, $7.50. 



ERNEST GRANDPIER.— Blocms are ghs- 

 tening creamy white, double, with a pointed 

 center and resemble a Cape Jasmine. Splendid 

 for cutting. Each, 75c.; dozen, $7.50. 



Flower of Fairfield. — This is really an Ever- 

 blooming Crimson Rambler, the dazzling crim- 

 son flowers being produced intermittently from 

 June until frost. 



Gardenia (Hardy Marechal Niel). — The very 

 pretty pointed buds of this rose are nankeen 

 yellow, turning to waxy white when expanded, 

 and are held on long stems. 



Hiawatha. — A sturdy variety producing abun- 

 dant single flowers of a brilliant ruby carmine 

 with a clear white eye and a mass of golden 

 stamens. 



Lady Gay. — A profuse bloomer of 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. 



Philadelphia. — A seedling of the Crimson 

 Rambler, but blooms earlier and with larger, 

 more brilliant flowers. 



MARY LOVETT.— A superb pure white 

 climbing Rose. It is very much like the beauti- 

 ful Dr. W. Van Fleet rose, except that the 

 flowers are pure snow white. Blooms in late 

 summer and autumn as well as in June; is a 

 strong grower with abundant mildew-proof 

 foliage and is exceedingly free flowering. It is 

 beyond question the finest and most valuable 

 climbing white rose as yet offered. Each. $1.00; 

 dozen, $10.00. 



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 

 decorative semi-double flowers of varied shades 

 of deep to light pink and white. 



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. 



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.
