Cverblooming Cliinbing Roses

 vigorous constitution of Clothilde Soupert combined 

 with the same wonderful freedom of bloom and ex- 

 treme hardiness This new variety, in a single 

 season, even in small plants, will grow 15 to 25 feet, 

 producing cluster after cluster of the finest-formed 

 flowers In form they are distinct, large, round 

 and flat, with beautifully imbricated petals; per- 

 fectly full and double, and deliciously sweet. The 

 color effect is magnificent — ivory-white, shading 

 toward the center to silvery rose Throughout the 

 entire growing season it is literally loaded down

CLIMBING CRIMSON BABY RAMBLER. 



(Mailing size only.) A magnificent, hardy, ever- 

 blooming Rose. This variety, introduced only 

 recently, combines the wonderful everblooming 

 qualities of the Crimson Babv Rambler, with the 



ibing habit of the true Cr 



ibler. This 



makes it invaluable for use wherever a climbing 



Rose may be employed. Planted with taller-grow 

 ing kinds, it prolongs their blooming season and 

 removes their bareness of foliage near the ground. 

 The flowers, of brilliant crimson, are borne in 

 clusters throughout the summer; the foliage is 

 glossy and thick, resisting the attacks of insect 

 enemies. My stock of this great variety is limited. 

 Price, mailing size plants, 15 cts.; strong 2-year 

 plants, 50 cts.

 new Rose, the acme of all red climbing Roses. It

 to place it at the head of the list of all Roses for 

 summer blooming, as it will make a strong growth, 

 and is literally loaded with flowers all the time. 

 Price, strong plants, 3-inch pots, 15 cts; fine 2-year 

 plants. 35 cts.

 clusters all summer. Vigorous and rapid grower. 

 One plant of Mary Washington will produce more 

 flowers and buds than a dozen ordinary Roses. 

 Its fragrance is tinged with the old-fashioned musky 



flavor so much admired in olden times. My stock 

 is propagated direct from the old plant at Mount 

 Vernon, which is famous as having been planted by 

 George Washington and named in honor of his 

 mother. It is still a strong vigorous bush, blooming 

 profusely and demonstrating that the soil and cli- 

 mate of Fairfax are especially adapted to rose- 

 growing. Price, strong mailing size, from 3-inch

MRS. ROBERT PEARY (Chmbing Kaiserin). 

 White. This is, without doubt, the grandest of all 

 white climbing Roses It is the first and only 

 white, hardy, everblooming climbing Rose, and. 

 as such, fills a demand that has never before been 

 supplied. Small plants bloom continually the first 

 season, just as the parent, Kaiserin Augusta Victoria, 

 does The flowers are extra large, full, deep and 

 double, and are produced on long, stiff stems like a 

 forcing or cut-flower Rose. The buds are long and 

 pointed, exquisitely modeled and gracefully finished 

 Both in bud and flower it is truly beautiful. Always 

 a wonderfully vigorous grower and very hardy.

PHILADELPHIA CRIMSON RAMBLER.- 

 This splendid new variety differs from the old 

 Crimson Rambler in having a brighter, deeper and 

 more intense color, and flowers that are perfectly 

 double to the center; very durable and of excellent 

 substance. It is a very profuse bloomer and a good, 

 healthy grower, producing splendid clusters of per- 

 fectly double and intensely btilliant flowers, abso- 

 lutely free from the faded appearance so frequently 

 seen in flowers of the ordinary Crimson Rambler.
