ROSES 
Culture. In selecting a spot for a Rose bed, do not choose one that is shaded by trees or buildings, as the 
Rose delights in an open, airy situation and plenty of sunshine. Roses are partial to clay loam, and do well in 
any ordinary soil if well enriched with well-rotted barnyard manure. 
Dig the bed lip thoroughly to the depth of 12 to 15 inches, as Rose 
roots penetrate deep when they have a chance. 
NEW CLIMBING ROSES 
Crimson Rambler 
This Rose is unquestionably an acquisition, a novelty of high order, 
and most distinct in its characteristics. It is a running or climbing 
Rose of vigorous habit, strong and rapid grower, with handsome, shin- 
ing foliage, and produces in marvelous abundance clusters of the bright- 
est crimson semi-double Roses. Its clustered form, its brilliancy, the 
abundance of its bloom, and the great length of time the flowers re- 
main on the plant without falling or losing their brilliancy, are qualities 
which will make this new claimant for admiration an assured favorite. 
For verandas, walls, pillars and fences, it is a most suitable plant.
