OUR GREAT NEW HARDY ROSE 



Climbingf Killarney 



(See photographic illustration in colors opposite; 



We now offer for the first time a climbing type of 

 the famous j^ink Rose, Killarney, the most celebrated 

 Hvbrid Tea of its color yet introduced. Is identical 

 ■w-ith the parent variety, except that it is of the clirnbmg 

 habit of growth, placing it at once in a class by itself, 

 because there is no other chmbing variety of its color. 

 It is a strong, rapid grower, growing to perfection in the 

 open ground, throwing up shoots 10 to 15 feet high 

 in a single season, and is entirely hardy. It blooms 

 continuously throughout the season, and the flovrers 

 are magnificent beyond description, immense, long, 

 pointed buds with rnassive petals, opening into flower^ 

 of enormous size; color deep pink, bright and sparkling, 

 an exquisite shade, deliciously fragrant, in fact onf- 

 of the great new Ro.scs of tlie year. Our illustration on 

 the opposite page gives a slight idea of its marvelous 

 beautv. Stock limited.

 ing out lovely buds. The Meteor, La France, Coquette de Lyon, 

 Baby Rambler iyour gift) and several others are all that could 

 be desired, and I watch with much pleasure their growth . I con 

 recommend your one-year Roses: in fact, any Dingee Roses, as 

 being what you revresent them, to be. — Lil F. Hamitee, Colum-
