HARDY CLIMBING ROSES. 
These hard}' climbers are beautiful on lattice work or trellises, and valuable where 
any object is to be covered quickly or a shade is wanted. They are continuous bloom- 
ers in May and June, and often flower again in the fall.

s 
A new Japanese Rose that cannot fail to please all who give it a trial, and should 
be found m every American garden. 
Perfectly hardy ; wonderfully free- 
flowering ; rich, glowing crimson — a 
color unheard of before in hardy 
climbing Roses. The plant is a strong, 
rampant grower, making shoots 10 to 
12 feet long in a season after the first 
year, or when well estab- 
lished. The flowers are 
produced in large trusses, 
pyramidal in shape, often 
25 to 30 in a cluster, fairly 
covering the plant from 
the ground to the top 
with a mass of bright, 
glowing crimson. The 
color is simply superb, 
and is retained unfaded, 
or without showing any 
of the purplish tinge so 
often seen in dark Roses, 
for an unusual length of 
time. For walls, pillars 
and porches, or any other 
place where a hardy 
climbing Rose is wanted, 
nothing can be more de- 
sirable or beautiful. If 
grown in beds and peg- 
ged down, it makes a 
brilliant display with its 
profusion of bloom, large 
clusters shooting out from 
each joint. As many as 
300 blooms have been 
counted on a single 
branch. This Rose, al- 
though a “ novelty,” dif- 
fers from the usual un- 
tried introductions of 
French origin. It has 
been thoroughly tested 
for sufficient time to 
prove its 
value in the 
best American rosarians.
