A Rose -Decked Piazza 
H ere we illustrate the "Crimson Rambler” Rose 
trained to a piazza trellis. It is perhaps the most 
beautiful climbing Rose grown, bearing great quan- 
tities of small double crimson flowers in immense 
clusters.

An Arcade of Roses 
The Rose-arched walk, viewed above, forms one of the most beautiful flora! dis- 
plays imaginable when the Roses are in bloom. The arches here were made by fastening 
curved iron rods on stout posts, though regular garden arches covered with wire netting 
are procurable and exceedingly effective. In northern climates any of the hardy Climb- 
ing Roses are suitable for covering arches, and in southern states the Noisette Roses would 
be beautiful. Climbing Roses are not so largely grown in this country as they deserve 
to be. There are many situations about the garden ,• 
and grounds wheVe a plant or two of these most 
beautiful of all climbers could be utilized to great 
advantage, not only for arches, summer-houses, cov- 
ered walks, piazzas, walls, etc,, but in the most pic- 
turesque of all ways in clambering over hedge-rows, 
old shrubs, tree stumps, stone fences, etc. For this 
purpose the single "Memorial” Rose is effective.
