 ful in the bud and in the fully expanded

is somewhat misleading, but it is one of the _ 



best climbing Rom ; a strong healthy vig- w

from 10 to 12 feet long, and good sized 



flowers for a climbing Rose that blooms so 



freely: color rich rosy crimson, of splendid 



form and good substance.

form of flower to Paul's Scarlet Climber, 



but of an intense dark crimson color, and 



when fully expanded shows its numerous 



golden stamens, making a beautiful color 



combination. 

 Dr. W. Van Fleet. A Rose, which on 



account of its dainty color and exquisitely 



shaped buds and flowers, has become a 



great favorite. The long pointed buds are 



of a rich flesh-pink on stems 12 to 18 inches 



long: splendid for cutting. A strong 



vigorous grower.

Roserie (Red Tausendschocn). Of the same 

 habit of growth and flowering as Tausend-

 shade of cerise-pink, or carmine. 



Silver Moon. Different from all other 

 Roses, with beautiful semi-double flowers 

 four and a half inches and over in dia- 

 meter: pure white in color, petals of great 

 substance, beautifully cupped, forming a 

 Clematis-like flower. 



Solarium. In single flowering climbers 

 this is a gem. It is of the same type 

 as Hiawatha on which it is a decided 

 improvement, the flowers being 

 larger, more freely produced and of 

 more brilliant coloring, an in- 

 tensely rich crimson-scarlet. 



Star of Persia. A brilliant Rose 

 with flowers on the order of the 

 lovely old Harison's Yellow, semi- 

 double, bright yellow, and about 

 3 inches across. A striking variety, 

 bursting into showers of sparkling 

 bloom in June. It does not fade 

 and the flower trusses last several 

 weeks. 



Tausendschoen. A popular vari- 

 ety with large flowers with wavy 

 azalea-like petals. In color it is a 

 most delicate shade of soft pink 

 when first opening, changing to 

 carmine on the reverse of petals 

 when fully expanded. 



The Beacon. A<li>tiiKt and effective novelty, 

 bright fiery-red with white eye in the way 

 of American Pillar, single and semi-double, 

 produced in large clusters, handsome foliage. 



Wichuraiana (Memorial Rose). Pretty, fra- 

 grant single pure white flowers with yellow 

 stamens followed in fall by bright red hips or 

 berries, a good climbing Rose where no great 

 height is required, especially valuable where a 

 trailing plant is des'red, forming a dense 

 mat of almost evergreen foliage.
