HARDY CLIMBING ROSES— Continued 



Paul's Scarlet Climber 



Startling, vivid scarlet colors have won for this Rose 

 well deserved recognition as the most attractive climber 

 ever introduced. It is a vigorous grower, produces a mass 

 of bloom, and with its bright colors, which are retained 

 without fading for a long period, it makes the most bril- 

 liant display imaginable. Heavy, disease resistant foliage; 

 great freedom of bloom. Paul's Scarlet Climber is the 



winner of innumerable 

 ledals for excellence, 

 and is a Rose that 

 no one should be 

 without, for it is 

 one that gives maxi- 

 mum returns with 

 a minimum of 

 care. 



Paul's Scarlet Climber 



Alberic Barbier 



This charming and popular rose is famous for its beauti- 

 ful blooms of yellow, fading to cream. An abundance of 

 blooms is produced early, and very often it will again 

 bloom in the fall. Beautiful, glossy foliage, unaffected by 

 disease. Of vigorous growth, and very hardy. It is 

 reported as doing well in practically all parts of the 

 country, but should be given slight protection in t lie 

 very severe climates. No one should be without this 

 unusual climber. 



Dr. Robert Huey. Buds and flowers medium size, 

 semi-double to single in clusters of 3 or 4 on good steins. 

 Can be used as a tall bush or pillar rose. Flowers 

 similar to Paul's Scarlet Climber but color is a dark 

 crimson of great brilliancy. Stamens and anthers 

 light yellow. 



Mary Lovctt. In this Dr. Van Fleet has brought 

 out another Wichuraiana Hybrid, a cross be- 

 tween a seedling Wichuraiana and Kaiser- 

 in Augusta Victoria and termed a 

 "White Dr. Van Fleet." This rose 

 is strongly recommended. Loses 

 foliage early. 

 Dr. W. Van Fleet. Flowers when 

 open run four inches and over in 

 diameter. The center is built 

 high, petals beautifully undu- 

 lated and cupped. The color is 

 a remarkable shade of flesh-pink 

 on the outer surface, deepening 

 to a rosv-flesh in the center. 

 The flowers are full and double, of delicate perfume; 

 buds pointed. It very much resembles Souv. de 

 Pres. Carnot in color. Strong, rapid grower. Im- 

 mune from insects and disease. Foliage 

 deep green the entire season. 



Keystone. Perfectly hardy every- 

 where, blooms in wonderful 

 profusion. The open flower of 

 Keystone is perfectly double, 

 with buds beautifully formed. 

 It is a deep lemon-yellow Rose, 

 similar to Coquette de Lyon. 

 The fragrance is much like 

 that of magnolia blossoms. 

 Climbing White Pet. Snow- 

 white. 

 Pride of Washington. Bright 

 amaranth, shaded rose center; 

 double clusters. 

 Lady Gay. Flowers of a deli- 

 cate cherry-pink, which fades 

 to a soft white; deep green foliage. 

 Gainsborough. An extremely beautiful Rose, deli- 

 cately tinted flesh, almost white, and lustrous as satin. 

 Aviateur Bleriot. Saffron-yellow, center golden-yellow; full 



and double, flowering in clusters. 

 Tennessee Belle. Bright rosy blush; large and fragrant. 

 Rubin. Flowers are large and more double than Crimson 

 Rambler; color bright, shining crimson-scarlet. Hardy in 

 all localities. A strong, rampant climber.
