Climbing Tea and Noisette Roses. i^ 



LL the varieties in this class are unusually free and continuous bloorners, pro- 

 ducing flowers of rare and striking beauty and of delicious fragrance. They 

 are mostly strong climbers, specially valuable for training over porches, pil-

Variefies marked H. are hardy everywhere with slight protection ; where marked 

 M. H., fhey are moderately hardy, and especially valuable for open-ground cultivation 

 south of Philadelphia.

Gloriotts Rose— Marechal Niel, MM- 



The very name of this Rose suggests 

 the sunny South, where it attains a de- 

 gree of perfection seldom seen in any 

 Rose. The buds and flowers are superb ; 

 extra large, very double and deliciously per- 

 fumed. The color is deep golden yellow. 

 Blooms with the greatest freedom. In the 

 North should have very careful protection in open ground 

 during the Winter ; splendid for greenhouse and house 

 culture. In the States where the Winters are mild, this 

 lovely variety cannot be surpassed for general planting.
