Climbing White Maman Cochet ; 
(See photographic illustration opposite) 
American Pillar 
For many years the old White Maman Cochet has been considered one of the very best of all White Tea 
Roses, and this new climber has all the superfine qualities of that old standard Rose, with added value in its 
climbing habit. The foliage is strong and of a delightfully fresh green, is not subject to disease or insect 
attacks, and even when not in bloom the plant is of great charm, adding great beauty to the house. 
The exquisite white flowers, every one of which is a perfect specimen of the White Maman Cochet Rose, are 
borne in the greatest profusion, fairly covering the plant all summer, for it is one of the most constant! 
bloomers of all the white climbing Roses. It is absolutely hardy, except in the extreme North, where it, 
requires some Slight protection. It is a strong, vigorous grower, throwing up strong canes 15 or 20 feet’ 
long in a single season. { 
For many years we tried to import plants of this remarkable Rose, and scoured the world at enormous: 
expense in our efforts, for we felt that no expense should be spared to supply our friends with the very best, 
and latest in Rose introductions. At last, from far-off New Zealand we succeeded in obtaining a strong, , 
thrifty plant, from which our stock has been propagated. Ours is the Guaranteed, Genuine Stock, which can! 
be procured from no other house in this country. Do not be misled into buying this Rose without a guarantee 
of its genuineness. First size, strong plants from pots 3 and 314 ir.ches in diameter, 20c. each, 6 for $1.00;; 
larger size, 30c. each; two-year-old plants, very large, 50c. each.
