LOVETTS NURSERY, LITTLE SILVER, N. J. — CLIMBING ROSES 



37 



The Choicest CLIMBING ROSES (Concluded) 



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. 



GOLD OF OPHIR — One of the most beautiful 

 of all climbers, besides being a strong grower and 

 luxurious bloomer. The flowers are a rich nas- 

 turtium yellow, blended with coppery red. $1.00 

 each; $10.00 per dozen. 



LADY GAY — A most profuse bloomer, in 

 large loose clusters. Its color is soft cherry pink, 

 changing to bluish white. A large plant, with cherry 

 pink buds and soft pink flowers. 



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 flowers are of surprisingly large 

 size and are borne long after the June bloomers have 

 seen their day. Winner of many highest awards. 

 Heavy two-year-old field-grown plants, $1.00 

 each; $10.00 per dozen. 



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 freedom during 

 June, and again bears a liberal crop of flowers dur- 

 ing 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 Wichurai- 

 ana hybrid, flowers exceeding 4 inches in diameter. 

 The lovely, glossy foliage has proved exceptionally 

 disease-resistant and adds considerably to the at- 

 tractiveness of the variety. Strong field-grown 

 plants, $1.50 each; $15.00 per dozen. 



PURITY — A white of exceptional size and 

 beauty. Pronounced the finest semi-double white in 

 cultivation to date." Heavy 2-year-old field- 

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



ROSERIE (Red Tausendschoen) — Here is 

 the deep, cerise pink or 6armine companion of the 

 very popular "Thousand Beauties" described be- 

 low. 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 yellow and quickly changing to pure 

 silvery white; are four inches or more in diam- 

 eter and slightly perfumed. $1.00 each; 

 $10.00 per dozen. 



TAUSENDSCHOEN (Thousand Beau- 

 ties) — 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 bewildering 

 profusion. A peculiar characteristic of this 

 variety 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 foli- 

 age. The flowers are single, pure white, with 

 golden yellow stamens and of delightful fra- 

 grance. 



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-re- 

 sisting foliage. 



Price, all varieties Climbing Roses (ex- 

 cept as noted), strong two-year field- 

 grown plants, 75c. each; $7.50 per dozen; 

 $50.00 per 100.
