CLinBINQ WHITE PET. 

 The Host Rapid=Qrow!ng and Freest-Blooming 

 Climbing Rose in Existence. 



In ofierinj? this supei'b new ciimbing variety for 

 the first time, we are coafideiit that us extra- 

 ordinary merit will make it one of the most pof u'ar 

 varieties of the year. It diffcsrs from all other climb- 

 ing varieties, inasmuch that for rapidity of growth it 

 has no equal in the climbinj? class, while for fteedom 

 of bloom it surpasses any variety we have ever seen. 

 As a coirspanion to Crimson R.imblerthis Rose is the 

 equal, if not the superior, of that famous variety, 

 because of its quickness of growth and wonderful 

 freedom of bloom. Its vigor is nothing short of 

 remarkable; young plants will the first year, under 

 ordinary cultivation, make a finely formed bush 

 with numerous shoots 12 to 16 feet in length. No 

 other rose will begin to equal this wonderful growth, 

 save, perhaps, Empress of China. The branches 

 are slender and extremely graceful, and are 

 /urnisbed with an abundance of large, clem 



handsome foliage which adds greatly ttt 

 its value. It blooms like Crimson Rambler. 

 The flowers are pure snowy-white in color, of 

 medium size, very double and full, and 'are 

 borne continuously throughout the season in 

 trusses, after the fashion of Crimson Rambler, 

 They are produced in astonishing numbers- 

 just as freely as any Polyantha variety. A well 

 established plant, with the shoots and stems 

 covered witia the beautiful large clusters of 

 pure white flowers presents a lovely sight. The 

 flowers have the additional charm of being 

 highly fragrant ; they emit a cherry like odor 

 both delicate and delicious. It will prove hardy 

 in the coldest climate with moderate protec- 

 tion. It is a true ever-blooming Rose, produc- 

 ing its charming flowers continually through- 

 out the feason. It blooms the first year alter 

 planting. As a distinct and highly meritorious 

 new Rose, the first of its class, this variety 

 should meet with instant popularity. It is sur^ 

 to give the utmost satisfaction. Large plants, 

 strong and healthy, 35 cts. each ; 3 for $1.
