NEW RAMBLER 

 AND CLIMBING ROSES 



Albertine. A remarkal)ly 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. 



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

 raised by Mr. Thomas Cook, a well-known amateur rosarian 

 of Boston, Mass., and 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 wliite climbing Roses. 



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

 hardy as Dr. Van Fleet. The buds are long and pointed, of 

 si)lendid 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 orna- 

 mental subject. 



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

 golden yellow at base; flowers fully 2 5 inches in diameter, 

 delightfully scented; rich dark green glossy disease-resisting 

 foliage entirely distinct from all others and a color which will 

 make it a favorite. 



New Cli.mbing Rose, Emily Gkav 



Mermaid. Beautiful large single creamy white flowers, 3 to 4 inches in 

 diameter. A most attractive free and more or less perpetual flowering 

 variety. A splendid pillar Rose, but not dependalily hardy in this 

 latitude. It requires careful winter protection. 



Papa Gouchalt. We have been well pleased with our own experience 

 with this comparatively new French Rambler and have had many favor- 

 able comments from customers who planted it in 1924 and flowered it 

 last season. It is a pure crimson holding its color under all weather con- 

 ditions without fading, with healthy mildew resisting foliage; the 

 flowers are produced in large trusses of 15 to 20 flowers each; extremely 

 hardy. 



Star of Persia. A brilliant new Rose wi»h flowers on the order of the 

 lovely old Harrison's Yellow, semi-double, bright yellow, and about 3 

 inches across. It makes a striking low climber or pillar Rose from 8 to 

 10 feet high, bursting into showers of sparkling bloom in June. It does 

 not fade and the flower trusses last several weeks. $1.50 each. 



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

 white eye in the way of .\merican Pillar, single and semi-double, pro- 

 duced in large clusters, handsome foliage. 



Price. Any of the above new varieties, except where noted, Sl.OOeach; 

 the set of 8 sorts for S7.50.
