HARDY CLIMBING ROSES- (Continued) 

 Planted this Fall, will start growth very early next Spring and 

 produce very much more satisfactory results than will Spring 



planted roses 



Our collection of Climbing Roses is, we believe, second to none. Each variety offered has been given 

 the most rigid sort of test, so that \ye can recommend every one. In our own nurseries, in both New 

 Jersey and Delaware, we grow immense quantities of the choicest Ramblers the world affords. Propa- 

 gated from fine parent strains, well-grown on clean land, properly cultivated and transplanted, we 

 challenge the world to produce finer plants than those we offer.
