Triumphal Arches of Rambler Roses 



Archways, Arbors, Summer-Houses and Pergolas 



This picture tells its owti story. Each archway require.^ only two Roset* 

 well planted in rich soil, and 2-years' fj^rowth will '' do the rest." Of course, 

 they will need a little training and tying. 



These same varieties are the best kinds to cover summer-houses, arbors, 

 bowers and pergolas. Whatever you build by way of support, make it sub- 

 stantial. If properly nourished and trained, these Roses will soon grow to 

 hide such frame-work and be a beautiful addition to your grounds.

Any handy man can erect an archw^ay. It should be very substantial, 

 and should have locust or cypress posts for permanence.

For Covering a Bank (or Stumps and the like) 



(See cut, opposite page) 



These sorts grow close to the ground and cover it completely with a 

 thick mat of rich shiny green leaves, and they stay green most of the year. 

 The flowers are charming. The single ones soon followed by bright-colored 

 berries, which the birds like later on. Railroad companies are coming to use 

 these on large embankments to hold the soil in place, also add to the road- 

 side, beauty on estates. i-yr. 2->t. 3->t-
