The Tree Baby Rambler 



{.Mad. Norbert Levavasseur) 



GROWN AS A STANDARD 



The popularity of the Baby Rambler has suggested the growing 

 of it as a tree, or standard. The variety is too well known for 

 description ; enough to say, it retains all its characteristics of free- 

 blooming qualities, etc. 



The purposes for which this Standard, or Tree Baby Rambler, 

 can be used to advantage are numerous, with very striking effect, — 

 among dwarf-growing Roses, or in formal lines, along borders of 

 flowers. We shall have only a limited number this season, and beg 

 to offer them as follows : 



SI each, $10 per doz. 



The Sensational New Rambler Rose 



LADY GAY 



When the Crimson Rambler Rose was first disseminated and 

 became generally known, it was hailed as one of the most important 

 Rose introductions in years, or, we might say, one of the greatest 

 plant introductions. From time to time new Ramblers of varying 

 merit have been put upon the market, but it was the wizard of 

 Woods Hole, Mr. M. H. Walsh, who came to the front with a real 

 companion for the Crimson Rambler in his new, sensational Ram- 

 bler Rose, Lady Gay. This Rose has received the highest awards 

 possible from the most distinguished societies in America and 

 Europe. 



The Raiser's Description: "A seedling from the popular 

 Crimson Rambler, which it resembles in habit and general effect. 

 The flowers are of a delicate cherry-pink color, which fades to soft 

 white. The foliage is very profuse and of a glossy deep green shade. 

 The effect of a plant in full bloom, with the combination of the soft 

 white flowers, the cherry-pink buds, and the deep green foliage, is 

 indeed most charming. The plant is a vigorous grower and per- 

 fectly hardy. The flowers are very numerous and of good size ; they 

 are also delicately perfumed. This is a Rose of the highest merit, 

 and far superior to the Crimson Rambler. This is a new color in a 

 Rose, of which one will not become tired, as is the case with the 

 Crimson Rambler " Strong-flowering plants, field-grown (by which 

 is meant plants which will flower next summer), $1.25 each, 

 $12 per doz. 



Other Climbing Roses of Merit 



PAUL'S CARMINE PILLAR. One of the most attractive 

 Climbing Roses. Flowers large and free ; color rosy carmine. Two- 

 year-old, field-grown, 25 cts. each, $2.50 per doz. 



MARECHAL NIEL. One of the best known Climbing Roses, 

 though unfortunately not hardy in the North. It is considered one 

 of the best under glass, however. Color bright rich golden yellow. 

 Field-grown, 25 cts. each, $2.50 per doz. 



GLOIRE DE DIJON. Another favorite of the climbing class, very free-flowering and comparatively hardy, with slight protection. 

 Color buff, orange center, very sweet-scented. Field-grown, 25 cts. each, $2 50 per doz. 



Grafted and Own-Root Tea Roses for Forcing and 



Baby Rambler grown as standard, or tree 



Growing Under Glass

 leading growers to supply us this coming season. The stock will be strictly first-class. Will be inspected by us before shipment, but 

 intending purchasers should place their orders early to avoid disappointment.
