American Pillar 



Climbing White Maman Cochet 



(See photographic illustration opposite) 



For many years the old White Maman Cochet has been considered one of the very best of all White Tea 

 Roses, and this new climber has all the superfine qualities of that old standard Rose, with added value in its 

 climbing habit. The foliage is strong and of a delightfully fresh green, .is not subject to disease or insect 

 attacks, and even when not in bloom the plant is of great charm, adding great beauty to the house. 



The exquisite white flowers, every one of which is a perfect specimen of the White Maman Cochet Rose, are 

 borne in the greatest profusion, fairly covering the plant all summer, for it is one of the most constant 

 bloomers of all the white climbing Roses. It is absolutely hardy, except in the extreme North, where it 

 requires some slight protection. It is a strong, vigorous grower, throwing up strong canes 15 or 20 feet 

 long in a single season. 



First size, strong plants from pots 3 and 3^ inches in diameter, 20c. each, 6 for $1.00; larger size, 30c. 

 each; two-year-old plants, very large, 50c. each. 



AMERICAN PILLAR. A new Climber of extremely 

 vigorous habit of growth, the bushes being clothed 

 in lively green from earliest spring until late in the 

 fall. The flowers are produced in profusion, fairly 

 covering the bush, and their pretty pink color is a 

 delight to the eye. In the fall, the flowers are 

 followed by large clusters of attractive red berries, 

 which are highly ornamental. Planted singly or in 

 groups on the lawn, this Rose is sure to evoke 

 favorable comment. Strong young plants, 25c. 

 each, 5 for $1.00; larger size, 35c. each; two-year- 

 old plants, 50c. each.
