NEW RAMBLER 

 AND CLIMBING ROSES 



Albertine. A remarkably free-flowering rambler with nicely shaped 

 buds expanding to moderately double flowers of splendid form, nearly 

 four inches in diameter; of a pleasing cameo-pink with silvery suffusion. 

 sweetly scented; foliage rich deep glossy green. $1.00 each. 



Bonnie Prince. This new, pure white climber, which was raised by 

 Mr. Thomas Cook, a well-known amateur rosarian of Boston, Mass., 

 arid presented by him to the Portland Rose Society, is a strong, vigorous 

 Rambler, free-flowering, pure snow-white, similar in form to Paul's 

 Scarlet Climber. This will no doubt supersede all other hardy white 

 climbing Roses. $1.00 each. 



Smily Gray. In this we have a real yellow climbing Rose as hardy as 

 Dr. Van Fleet. The buds are long and pointed, of splendid shape; in 

 color a beautiful light orange-yellow, changing to pale orange as they 

 expand; they are borne on stiff stems of sufficient length for cutting; 

 these stems are of a crimson-red color which together with the unusually 

 dark green, glossy, holly-like foliage, adds a charm to the flowers and 

 makes the plant, even when out of bloom, a most ornamental subject. 

 $1.00 each. 



Jacotte. Color shrimp-pink or light salmon-orange shaded golden yellow 

 at base; flowers fully 2 J inches in diameter, delightfully scented; rich 

 dark green glossy di.?ease-resisting foliage. $1.00 each. 



Mary Wallace. Named by the Portland Rose Society in honor of tj.e 

 daughter of Secretary of Agriculture Wallace, originated at the Maryland 

 Station of the Department of Agriculture by the late lamented Dr. 

 W. Van Fleet, one of the world's greatest Rosarians, and is the first of 

 a series of what has been called "dooryard" Roses, that is expected 

 to be of great usefulness and adaptability and to the production of 

 which Dr. Van Fleet was giving his best endeavors at the time of hi" 

 death. 



The Department describes it as a pillar Rose, making a fine, strong, self- 

 supporting plant 6 to 8 feet high, with large glossy foliage, blooming 

 with great freedom in spring and bearing a considerable number of fine 

 buds in summer and fall. Flowers very large, generally exceeding 4 

 inches across; well-formed, semi-double, of a bright clear rose-pink with 

 salmon base to the petals. $1.50 each. 



Papa Gouchault. A French introduction that comes to us 

 highly recommended as a pure crimson that holds its color under 

 all weather conditions without fading and with mildew-resistant 

 foliage, the flowers are produced in large trusses of 15 to 20 

 flowers each. $1.00 each. 



Climbi.xg American Beauty Rose 



The Beacon. A distinct and effective novelty, bright fiery-red 

 with white eye in the way of American Pillar, single and semi- 

 double, produced in large clusters, handsome foliage. $1.00

shape.

 one each of the 16 varieties for $10.00. 



Hiawatha. A beautiful single flower of a brilliant ruby-carmine 

 with white eye. 



Paul's Scarlet Climber. No other Rose, in any class, can 

 ■ compare 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 co 

 20 flowers each on much branched canes, the plants being liter- 

 ally covered from top to bottom with bloom.

 even tone of cerise-pink.
