Dingee Hardy Everblooming 

 Climbing Hybrid Tea Roses 



These cliiiihiii^ roses are noted for the ex- 

 quisite b(>aiity of ttieir flowers, equalling the 

 Hybrid Teas. They are strong growing, vigorous, 

 and bloom freely all summer. They are not as hardy 

 as the (.'limbers descrii)e(l in a former part of this 

 book, yet they sur\ i\ e tlie coldest winters in the dis- 

 trict of Philadelphia without the slightest attention 

 and with protection can withstand very severe 

 weather. In the warmer sections of the country, they 

 fairly run riot in their glory of bloom, and present 

 the most wonderful display of beauty imaginable. 



Climbing Gruss an Teplitz 



This is the hardiest of the ev erblooming Climbing Hybrid Teas 

 It blooms throughout the season, and is exceptionally satisfactory. 

 A'igorous grower; heavy foliage, somewhat subject to mildew. 

 Sometimes it happens that this line climbing Rose does not be- 

 come established as quickly as otlier sorts, but given attention it 

 will produce a profusion of blooms of that line dark crimson of 

 its parent plant, the bush variety of the same name.

 of large size and perfectly formed handsome buds. Strong 

 grower. Profuse bloomer. Price, first size plants, 50 cts.

 ing toward the center. 

 Climbing Lady Ashtown. Strong, rapid grower,

 Climbing Lady Hillingdon. A true Lady HiUingdon 

 Rose of the climbing habit. The blooms are identical 

 with the bush variety of this same name, but the 

 piant is a strong, vigorous grower, producing its buds 

 and blooms throughout the growing season with 

 great profusion. As hardy as the bush rose of this 

 name. Price, 50 cts. each for first size plants; 

 Iwo-year-old plants, $1.50 each. 

 Climbing Helen Gould. The growth is sturdy, the 

 foliage grand, the flowers warm, rosy crimson, some- 

 times beautifully striped, flamed and shaded in 

 bright carmine, over pale rose.

 very handsome and fragrant. Strong cHmber with
