Chaplin’s Pink Climber 
Unquestionably the most important acquisition in climbing Roses since the introduction of Dr. Van Fleet 
and Paul’s Scarlet Climber, which are universally recognized as the two most popular climbing Roses and to 
which Chaplin’s Pink Climber will prove an equally valuable companion. 
This striking novelty originated at Waltham Cross, England, in the same nursery in which Paul’s Scarlet 
Climber was raised. 
It is a cross between Paul’s Climber and American Pillar, 
of strong vigorous growth, 
perfectly hardy, with large glossy dark green foliage, producing its large flowers, similar in size and form to 
Paul’s Scarlet Climber, very profusely in strong trusses of from 8 to 12 flowers each, but in color it is a rich 
lively pink. 
At the Spring Show of the National Rose Society of England in 1928, it was the outstanding feature 
among the new Roses and was awarded the Society’s Gold Medal. 
Strong plants, $1.50 each. 
tural Society’s Award of Merit. 
Mme. Gregoire Staechelin 
The first climbing Rose to which a Gold Medal was 
awarded at the International Test Garden for Roses 
at Bagatelle, Paris, France. j . 
Mme. Gregoire Staechelin has inherited the best 
traits of both of its popular parents, Frau Karl Dru- 
schki and Chateau de Clos Vougeot. The plant is of 
strong climbing habit, growing 12 feet or more high, 
and has large disease-resistant foliage. The main 
stems grow vigorously upright and all along these the 
following year, side branches, 12 to 14 inches long will 
develop with exquisite, full, very fragrant flowers. 
At the tips, the long pointed buds are crimson at 
first as the sepals divide, then the firm outer petals 
show splashes of carmine as the flower opens with an 
iridescent pearl pink inside. Strong plants, $1.50 each. 
Albertine. Nicely shaped vermilion buds expanding to 
moderately double, perfect shaped flowers of a pleas- 
ing cameo-pink with silvery suffusion, sweetly scent- 
ed; foliage rich deep, glossy green. $60.00 per 100. 
Bonfire. One of the freest flowering of Dorothy 
Perkins type but with great trusses of cherry crim- 
son flowers; an early bloomer. $60.00 per 100. 
Emily Gray. In this we have a real yellow climbing 
Rose. The buds are long and pointed, of splendid 
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; 
dark green, glossy, holly-like foliage. $60.00 per 100. 
Ernestine Cosme. A unique single-flowered variety of 
pretty form and of a delicate soft pink, these are 
borne in great pyramidal shaped many flowered 
sprays in great profusion. $60.00 per 100.

Also received the English Royal Horticul- 
shape which open to creamy-white, fairly double 
flowers which are borne in clusters of up to 20 flow- 
ers on stems long enough for cutting. $50.00 per 100. 
Le Reve. A yellow pillar Rose of which Dr. J. Horace 
McFarland, editor of the American Rose Annual, 
under date of May 31, 1927, said: “Le Reve is per- 
fectly beautiful today, a yellow Rose requiring no 
excuse for fading, for it is yellow and stays yel- 
low. The foliage is good, the plant is good looking 
and the fragrance to me is delightful.” $60.00 per 100. 
Marie Gouchault. Identical with Dorothy Perkins, ex- 
cepting in color, which is a clear geranium-pink 
without magenta shadings. Very free and early. 
$60.00 per 100. 
Pauls Lemon Pillar. A very beautiful and entirely 
distinct large double, sulphur-yellow, perfectly 
formed flower, that has proven hardy in this lati- 
tude during the past four seasons. Fine as a pillar 
Rose. $60.00 per 100. 
Phyllis Bide. The feature of this variety is that it 
blooms continuously throughout the summer and fall, 
and while its flowers are small they are of exquisite 
form in the bud opening with gracefully refiexed 
petals and are produced in long, loose sprays; in color 
a pale gold at base, flushed and shaded pretty rosy- 
carmine towards the edges. $50.00 per 100. 
Solarium. In single-flowered Ramblers this is a gem. 
It is of the same type as Hiawatha on which it is 
a decided improvement, the flowers being larger, 
more freely produced and of more brilliant coloring, 
an intensely rich crimson-scarlet. $50.00 per 100. 
Star of Persia. A brilliant new Rose with flowers on 
the style of the old Harison’s Yellow, semi-double, 
bright yellow and about 3 inches across. A striking 
variety, bursting into bloom early in June. It does 
not fade and the flower trusses last several weeks. 
$60.00 per 100.
