HARDY CLIMBING ROSES— Continued 



Birdie Blye 



This Rose is the only one of its class 



that can be called absolutely ever- 

 blooming — it is in flower continually 



from early spring until the snow is on 



the ground. Bright, carmine fragrant 



flowers, and of good form, large size 



produced in clusters. Heavy, disease 



resistant foliage. It grows to a height 



of about ten feet, of vigorous growth it 



climber. This Rose is exceptionally satisfactory. 



It produces a wealth of bloom and needs no atten- 

 tion once it becomes established on its own roots.

 profusion of lemon-yeUow, semi-double flowers in large trusses, 

 The buds are beautiful deep yeUow,

 intensified by the pure white centers and brilliant golden 

 anthers which shine out when the flowers are fuUy open.

 berries, which are highly-ornamental.

 markably pretty pointed buds, beautiful clear shell-

 borne in loose clusters and are a delightful shade of 

 blue — something entirely difi'erent from any Rose now 

 in cultivation.

 satisfactory climber in every respect.
