HARDY CLIMBING AND RAMBLER ROSES 
We offer on this page a selection of the best standard varieties of Hardy Climbing and Rambler Roses, which with the splendid 
new sorts offered on page 58 makes our collection of these very complete. 
Alida Lovett. Bright shell-pink with light yellow shadings at 
base of petals, flowers of good size and quality. A most desirable 
climber. 
American Pillar. A single flowering variety of great beauty. 
The flowers are of large size, 3 to 4 inches across, of a lovely 
shade of pink with a clear white eye and cluster of yellow sta- 
mens. These flowers are borne in immense bunches, and a 
large plant in full bloom is a sight not easily forgotten. 
Bess Lovett. Resembles Climbing American Beauty, in shape 
of flower, but is brighter in color, a clear bright red, of good size 
and of double full-cupped form lasting a long time in good 
condition; a strong vigorous grower and very fragrant. 
Christine Wright. A most exquisite Rose, of strong climbing 
habit. The flowers are double, from 3} to 4 inches in diameter, 
borne singly and in clusters, of perfect form, beautiful in the 
bud and in the fully expanded flower; color a most refreshing 
bright wild-rose pink. 
Climbing American Beauty. One of the best climbing Roses; 
a strong healthy vigorous grower, frequently making shoots from 
10 to 12 feet long, and good sized flowers for a climbing Rose that 
blooms so freely; color rich rosy crimson, of splendid form and 
good substance. 
Dorothy Perkins. Soft shell-pink, flowering profusely in large 
clusters, very fragrant and lasting, a grand Rose in every way. 
Dr. Robert Huey. Similar in habit of growth and form of 
flower to Paul’s Scarlet Climber, but of an intense dark crimson 
color, and when fully expanded shows its numerous golden 
stamens, making a beautiful color combination. 
Dr. W. Van Fleet. A Rose, which on account of its dainty 
color and exquisitely shaped buds and flowers, has become a 
great favorite. The long pointed buds are of a rich flesh-pink 
on stems 12 to 18 inches long; splendid for cutting. A strong 
vigorous grower. 
Ernestine Cosme. A unique single flowered variety of pretty 
form and of a delicate soft pink, which are produced in great 
pyramidal-shaped, many flowered sprays. 
Excelsa. This has superseded the old Crimson Rambler, it is vig- 
orous in growth with healthy dark glossy green foliage. The flow- 
ers are very double, produced in large trusses. The color is intense 
crimson maroon, the tips of the petals tinged with scarlet. 
Hiawatha. A brilliant single, ruby carmine, with a clear white 
eye and a mass of golden stamens—a glowing combination of 
colors. 
Mary Lovett. Large well-formed flowers of pure waxy white, 
sweetly scented. 
Mary Wallace. Well formed, semi-double flowers of a bright 
clear rose-pink with salmon base to the petals, flowers large, 
generally exceeding four inches in diameter, very free flowering. 
Paul’s Scarlet Climber. No other climbing Rose can com- 
pare with this for brilliancy of color which is maintained until 
the petals fall. The flowers, a vivid scarlet, are of good size, 
semi-double, very freely produced in clusters of from 3 to 20 
flowers each on much branched canes, the plants being literally 
covered from top to bottom with bloom. 
Roserie (Red Tausendschoen). Of the same habit of growth and 
flowering as Tausendschoen, but of a deeper and more even 
shade of cerise-pink, or carmine. 
Silver Moon. Different from all other Roses, with beautiful 
semi-double flowers four and a half inches and over in diameter; 
pure white in color, petals of great substance, beautifully cupped, 
forming a Clematis-like flower. 
Solarium. In single flowering climbers this is a gem. It is of 
the same type as Hia,atha on which it is a decided improve- 
ment, the flowers being larger, more freely produced of an 
intensely rich crimson-scarlet. 
Tausendschoen. A popular variety with large flowers with 
wavy azalea-like petals. In color it is most delicate shade of 
soft pink when first opening, changing to carmine on the reverse 
of petals when fully expanded.

CLIMBING HYBRID-TEA AND TENDER CLIMBING ROSES 
While not as a rule as free flowering as the bush type of Hybrid-Tea Roses, these climbing forms produce a large crop of beautiful 
flowers in June, with a liberal scattering of blooms throughout the season. The tender sorts are not hardy in the latitude of Philadelphia, 
except in favored positions, or with protection; especially adapted to covering rafters, etc., in greenhouses, or for outdoor culture in 
the South. 
Black Boy. An Australian introduction where it has become a 
great favorite; a sweet scented large fiery scarlet overlaid with 
blackish maroon. :

of the popular pink bush Rose in climbing form. 
Climbing Hadley. 
Climbing Hoosier Beauty. Beautifully shaped buds of large 
size, of a rich dazzling scarlet. 
Climbing H. V. Machin. A counterpart of the rich scarlet 
bush variety, but of very strong climbing habit. 
Climbing Kaiserin Augusta Victoria. A climbing form of 
this popular white Rose. : 
Climbing Lady Ashtown. The best of all the climbing Hy- 
brid-Tea varieties. A plant in the most exposed part of our 
Nursery, with very little protection, has withstood many 
winters, producing not only an immense crop of its very large 
soft rose-colored flowers in June, but continuing to bloom 
almost without intermission until the end of the season. 
Climbing Lady Hillingdon. Beautiful long well formed buds 
of a luminous coppery shade of apricot-yellow.

Rose Los Angeles, producing equally beautiful sweet scented

bright fadeless pink with large buds and very large cupped 
flowers; very vigorous.
