very double, and blooms in beautiful clusters, the whole plant appearing 
a perfect mass of blooms. The best white climbing rose.

double, crimsoa roses iu the greatest profusion, which remain in flower a 
longtime. It does well as a house rose, and plants brought in at Easter 
bring fabulous price.=;. As au outdoor-hardy rose it has grown in favor con- 
stantly. Its robust habits add to its beauty, and its easy and successful 
cultivation. We offer it in all sizes and prices. Small plants in pots 15 
cts, each ; i year 25 cts.; 2 years 50 cts.; extra stiong 75 cts. and $i each. 
Philadelphia Rambler. A cross between Crimson Rambler and the 
Hybrid Perpetual Victor Hugo, and is identical in all respects to the Crim- 
son Rambler, except in color, which is a deeper, brighter and more intense 
crimson, which never fades. It is a most valuable addition to .our list of 
bardy climbing Roses. 50 cts. 
Dorothy Perkins. Another climbing rose which in general habit closely 
resembles the Crimsora Rambler, but of a beautiful shell-pink, full and 
■double, and of an unusually large size for a cluster rose. The trusses are 
made up of from 30 to 40 flowers and frequently more on the stronger 
branches. A rose that is certain to become popular. 
It flowers in the same large heads or panicles as Crimson Rambler, while 
the color is several shades deeper and does not fade so quickly. The indi- 
vidual bloom is larger and it is just as hardy. A first-cla-s Rose iu every 
respect, sects ; small plants 25 cts.
