CLIMBING MARECHAL NIEL 
CLIMBING ROSEIS, continued 
of the Hybrid Teas. The foliage is an exact coun- 
terpart of its parent, Viscountess Folkestone. Its 
delicate colors are hard to describe, being deli- 
cately tinted flesh, almost white, and lustrous as 
satin. When in full bloom it resembles a large, 
white, fluffy peony, but without a suggestion of 
stiffness, often measuring 8 or 9 inches in diam- 
eter. An enthusiastic admirer describes it as a 
Rose reminding him of a beautiful girl wearing a 
light-colored Gainsborough hat, ornamented with 
white ostrich plumes. Hence the suggestion of 
its name. Be sure and try this grand Rose. 
*Mary Washington. Said to have originated at 
Mt. Vernon over one hundred years ago. It is an 
ever-blooming climbing Rose of vigorous and 
rapid growth, and makes a profusion of fine buds, 
which are borne in large clusters. The flowers 
are of medium size, pure white, perfectly double 
and very sweet. Oneof the most popularclimbers. 
*Gloire de Dijon. A magnificent Rose ; one of 
the finest in every respect. Large, perfectly 
double and tea-scented ; color rich creamy white, 
beautifully tinged with amber and pale blush. 
*Marechal Niel. Beautiful, deep sulphur-yel- 
low, very full, very large and exceedingly fra- 
grant. It is the finest yellow Rose in existence. 
When allowed to grow until it attains a large size, 
as it will in a few years, it yields thousands of 
beautiful golden yellow flowers, and makes a 
grand sight in the garden. Grown the world over 
for its magnificent yellow flowers especially de- 
sirable in the South. We have a grand stock of 
this variety, and can guarantee it true to name. 
2/4-inch pots, locts.; 3-inch pots, 25 cts.; 5-inch 
pots, 50 cts. Field-grown, 50 cts. 
*Mrs. Robt. Peary (Climbing Kaiserin Au- 
gusta Victoria). An exact counterpart of the 
bush form in every way except its climbing 
features. This is one of the most delightful of all 
pillar Roses, and should be in every collection. 
*Pink Rambler (Psyche). A new Rose from 
the Crimson Rambler, which is identical with its 
parent in all its fine qualities except the color, 
which is a light salmon-rose, shaded with pink. 
A strong grower, and a real companion to the 
Crimson Rambler. Grown together they make 
handsome embellishments to the porch. 
^President Cleveland (Climbing Marie Guil- 
lot). Of a semi-climbing habit and otherwise 
identical with Marie Guillot, the loveliest of all 
white Roses. 
FIELD-GROWN ROSES 
We want to call your attention to the fact that field-grown Roses should be planted early, to get 
the best results. We always do all replanting of field-grown Roses in the month of January. Why? 
Because if planted late in the season the roots do not get a good hold on the soil before the top starts 
into growth; and to have the best results they should be planted early, so that the young roots, or 
workers, may get well formed before the top has started into growth. You can plant these, to have 
the best results, in December, January and February. While they may be planted later and do well, 
with proper care, you will have much better results by planting very early, and much less care will be 
required. The young roots that form after planting are what supports the plant, and the better chance 
these roots have to form and get hold of the ground, the better chance the plant has to thrive. It is 
pot the old roots you want, but the new opes. They are the workers.
