LOVETT'S NURSERY, LITTLE SILVER, N. J.— CLIMBING ROSES 



The Choicest CLIMBING ROSES 



{Concluded) 



MARY WALLACE— A Dr. Van Fleet hybrid, 

 of the Pillar Rose type, forming strong upright 

 bushes 6 to 8 feet tall. It blooms with great free- 

 dom during June, and again bears a liberal crop of 

 flowers during late summer and fall. The semi- 

 double flowers are of bright, clear rose pink color 

 with salmon tints at base of petals. It is the largest 

 of any Wichuraiana hybrid, flowers exceeding 4 

 inches in diameter. The lovely, glossy foliage has 

 proved exceptionally disease-resistant and adds con- 

 siderably to the attractiveness of the variety. 

 Strong 'field-grown plants, $1.00 each; $10.00 

 per dozen. 



PILLAR OF GOLD— Blooms are double to the 

 center; of the largest size; and come in immense 

 bouquets of from five to ten blooms on a single 

 branch, so that the effect throughout the blooming 

 season is a perfect sheet of color. The color, ruby-red, 

 suffused with golden-yellow, is a happy combination. 



ROSERIE (Red Tausendschoen)— Here is the 

 deep, cerise pink or carmine companion of the very 

 popular "Thousand Beauties" described below. It 

 is as free blooming and of the same vigorous habit of 

 growth . 



SILVER MOON — Its buds are exquisite in form 

 and color, and its many semi-double flowers are very 

 pretty and decorative, opening a soft nankeen yel- 

 low and quickly changing to pure silvery white; 

 are four inches or more in diameter and slightly per- 

 fumed. $1.00 each; $10.00 per dozen. 



TAUSENDSCHOEN (Thousand Beauties)— 

 A fine rose indeed. It is a very strong grower, and 

 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. Its bloom is produced in actually bewilder- 

 ing profusion. A peculiar characteristic of this va- 

 riety is that it has no thorns. 



WICHURAIANA (Memorial Rose)— A perfect 

 trailer, hugging the ground closely. It grows from 

 ten to fifteen feet in a season, and possesses dense, 

 dark green, glossy foliage. The flowers are single, 

 pure white, with golden yellow stamens and of de- 

 lightful fragrance. 



WHITE DOROTHY PERKINS^- A sport of the 

 popular Dorothy Perkins, and like it in every way 

 except that its flowers are white. Free in bloom 

 and with disease-resisting foliage. 



Price, all varieties Climbing Roses (except 

 as noted), strong two-year field-grown plants, 

 75c. each: $7.50 per dozen; $50.00 per 100. 



To Get the Utmost from Your 

 Rose Beds 



Rose beds that bloom freely are large consumers 

 of plant food. Unless the fertility of the soil is re- 

 plenished periodically and systematically, your roses 

 will not do as well as they might. A very conven- 

 ient article to use is our 



Miracle Brand Rose and Shrub Food 



A carefully compounded, well-balanced plant food 

 containing all the elements necessary to make shrubs 

 thrive and roses bloom. Two heaping handfuls per

 ing season, will truly work wonders. Prices, 5-lb. 

 bag, 75c; 10-lb. bag, $1.25. Special prices on
