loose clusters. Equal to CrimsOT^laom- 
bler in every way, but more elegant, 
larger, and somewhat fragrant. 
The foliageis small, dainty, and a glossy 
dark green; hangs late, almost evergreen. 
The vines twine around.their support with 
a grace that is found in no other climber, 
and are beautiful with or without bloom.

vine at Stark City made forty feet growtli.

form a hedge, or trained over fences and 
trellises. Cut out old canes. Hardy.

tinuing throughout the season; very fra- 
grant. For hedges and the lawn. A 
splendid bedding Rose for the extreme

to remove old canes.
