Ramblers and Other Climbing Roses 



The Grand New R ambler. EVANGELINE, i ' '•^ ^ty is dis 



— ; tmct; single flower 



2 iiiciies in diameter; foliage a vigorous growing kind; flowers borne in large 

 clusters, white with the tips of petals pink, deliciously fragrant; foliage on the 

 young growth of this variety is particularly attractive as it is of a beautiful bronz\ 

 green. The contrast with the flowers and handsome foliage of this variety is most 

 attractive. Evangeline is suitable for pergolas, parkways, trellises or for whatever 

 purpo.se they may be desired. Perfectly hardy, extra-strong, 2-year-old, $2 eachl: 

 bundle of 5 for $9. 



DELIGHT. The new Rambler Rose " Delight," is an improvement on Ilia- 



■* watha ; flowers are larger, brighter red with white center ; growth 



more vigorous and foliage dark glossy, shiny laurel hue. This variety is a decided 

 actitiisition. If cut back after the first blooming it flowers cjuite freely a second time 

 the latter part of September and early October. Flowers are borne in large clus- 

 ters from forty to seventy-five in a cluster. Each, $2 ; bundle of 5, $9. 



HIAWATHA. ^ seedling from Crimson Rambler. The flowers are sin- 



' gle, and are of a deep, intense crimson shade with the petals 

 shading to a pure white base. The foliage is of a dark glossy green. The remark- 

 able beauty and the striking effect of a plant in full bloom must be seen to be thor- 

 oughly appreciated. Flowers very freely, and is undoubtedly one of the best of 

 the single Roses now extant. It is an excellent plant for forcing and is well suited 

 for climbing or trailing. Extra-strong, 2-year, field-grown, flowering plants, $1.50 

 each, $y for 5. 



WEDDING BELLS. 



Wedding Bells is a seedling of the Crimson Rambler. 

 This is a valuable acquisition to this charming class 

 of Roses. It grows vigorously, is hardy, distinct in foliage, and the most florifer- 

 ous Rose yet produced. All the buds on each shoot produce a cluster of beautiful 

 flowers, of which the color is white with the upper half of the petals soft pink. It 

 is admirably suited for growing as a specimen bush in the garden, and may be 

 grown in hedge form for windbreak or shelter in the garden. The plant is per- 

 fectly hardy. Extra-strong, 2-year field-grown flowering plants, $1.50 each, $7 for 5. 



LADY GAY. ^ seedling from the popular Crimson Rambler, which it re- 

 * sembles in habit of growth and general effect. The flowers 

 are of a delicate cherry-pink color, which fades to a 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. As will be seen from the accompanying illustration, the flowers are 

 very numerous and of good size; they are also delicately perfumed. Eacli; 35 cts.; 

 per 5, $1.50; per 100, $25. Extra-strong, 3-year plants, each, $1 ; bundle of 5, $4.50. 



A thousand blooms. 

 This beautiful climbing 



Rose is the result of several crosses between the well-known Crimson Rambler 

 with Tea and Pcjiyantha Roses. The flowers appear from beginning of June till 

 end of Jvily in large loose clusters ; of a lovely soft pink color, later on the some- 

 what curled petals assume a carmine-rose, when in full bloom giving the appearance of two different varieties. 75 cts. each, $3.50 for 5. 



CRIMSON RAMBLER ROSE. American-grown. As a climber it is unsurpassed, perhaps unequaled. As an Ea.ster pot-plant 



' it is extremely popular. By keeping it cut down it makes a splendid bedding Rose, and a hedge 

 of it is the most beautiful object imaginable. We can supply extra-strong two-year-old plants grown on their own roots, at the following 

 prices: 4 to 5 feet long, 25 cts. each, $2.25 for 10, $20 per 100; 4 feet long, 20 cts. each, $1 for 5, $18 per 100. 



DOROTHY PERKINS. Resembles the Crimson Rambler, except in color, which is a lovely shell-pink, holding a long time with- 

 '• out fading. A very strong, vigorous grower and free bloomer. 20 cts. each, $1 for 5, $18 per 100. 



This is a climbing sport from the well known snow- 

 white variety, Frau Karl Druschki, and should be-
