Climbing Frau 

 Karl Druschki 



As Frau Karl Druschki, or White American 

 Beauty, has become one of the leading white 

 Roses, so we expect this climbing form of the 

 same Rose to become one of the most popu- 

 lar white climbers, as it well deserves to be 

 with its large, glistening white flowers and 

 magnificent, large, fresh green foliage. It has 

 created a positive sensation wherever grown. 

 First size, from pots, 3 ^^^ inches in diameter, 

 35 cts. each, 3 for $1; larger size, 50 cts. 

 each; two-year-old plants, 75 cts. each; three- 

 year-old plants, $1 each. 



PRICE. All Roses on this page, except where noted, 

 — ^— ^ from pots 3^A inches in diameter, 25 cts. each, 

 $2.50 per doz. larger size, 35 cts. each, $3.50 per doz.; 

 two-year-old plants, 65 cts. each. 



Do you know what makes a good Rose? Probably 

 not; then listen: All roses on their own roots, and they 

 are the best, are grown from cuttings or branches of 

 the PARENT plant. Say the parent plant produces five 

 cuttings or young plants with TWO eyes or branches, 

 from which it makes other branches. In order to make 

 the parent plant pay a greater percentage it can be cut 

 into ten ONE-eyed cuttings— making ten young plants 

 instead of five TWO-eyed plants. These one-eyed plants if sold at 15 cents each, will bring $1.50, while if they are 

 made from two-eyed cuttings, as we make them, they will bring but $1.00 at 20 cents each — a seemingly higher 

 price; but a plant of this kind has twice the vitality and twice the blooming capacity of the one-eyed kind. They 

 are the only kind to buy. Just remember when comparing prices that all our plants are grown from these high-grade, 

 two-eyed plants— the best in the world. If you want the weak, one-eyed plants, they can be had, cheaper, and so 

 they ought to be. We do not grow them much less sell them.
