CLIMBING 
ROSES 
Two New Everblooming 
Hardy Climbing Roses 
SHIPPING CHARGES PREPAID 
The first of a new race of Hardy Climbing Roses 
which not only bloom at the usual time but continue 
to produce occasional buds and flowers throughout the 
season, and usually produce a good second and third 
crop in late summer and autumn. 
]Rloi7£3> (U. S. Plant Patent No. 10.) A sensa- 
tional everblooming form of the popular 
Paul’s Scarlet Climber. Has had a tremendous sale and 
will soon be in everybody’s garden. $1.50 each. 
The New Dawn. 
everblooming variation of the lovely pale pink hardy 
climber, Dr. W. Van Fleet. Reported to be unusually 
reliable in its everblooming character, and an outstand¬ 
ing new Rose. $1.50 each. 
Choicest Yellow Climbers 
Yellow Climbing Roses are rare, and as a rule not 
hardy. But these three Roses have proved more resist¬ 
ant to cold than any of their predecessors. The un¬ 
usually cold winter of 1933-34 damaged them some¬ 
what, but they can be relied upon to endure ordinary 
winters without harm, and they are exceedingly beautiful. 
Mrs. Arthur Curtiss James (Golden Climber). (U. S. 
Plant Patent No. 28.) Big, cup-shaped, pure yellow 
flowers on a very strong plant. Looks like a golden 
yellow form of Mary Wallace. $2 each. 
Jacotte. A most attractive climber with clustered flowers 
of orange-yellow, tinted rosy copper in the bud. Most 
charming and graceful. 75 cts. each. 
Reveil Dijonnais. The large, lemon-yellow flowers are like 
big flat wheels deeply rimmed with crimson-scarlet at 
the edges. Blooms a long time and in some respects 
resembles a Climbing Hybrid Tea. Very fine novelty. 
$1.50 each. 
Newest Polyanthas 
Great improvements arc being made in this race of 
dwarf, everblooming bedding Roses. Most of them 
produce their flowers in clusters steadily throughout 
the season, almost as faithfully as any annual bedding- 
out plant. These three novelties are outstanding. 
Belvedere. A great improvement on the deep scarlet- 
crimson Eblouissant. Its flowers are larger, more grace¬ 
fully carried, and the plants are lustier. $1 each; $10 
per doz. 
Johanna Tantau. Of low, almost creeping habit, very com¬ 
pact. The flowers arc white, exquisitely formed, daintily 
tinted with pink and creamy yellow. $1 each; $10 per doz. 
Sunshine. The only really reliable yellow-flowered Poly- 
antha. Buds are deep orange-scarlet, opening to bronzy 
yellow flowers which pale to delicate creamy fawn color 
as they open. Very sunshiny and altogether lovely. 
$1 each; $10 per doz. 
Rosa Rouletti 
This miniature Rose is charming in pots or rock- 
gardens. It has tiny foliage and double pink flowers 
half an inch across. In ordinary soil it grows very 
slowly. A perfect little toy Rose and very popular. 
Good potted plants, $1 each.

HERBACEOUS PLANTS 
the Hardy Border 
W E HAVE room in this folder to describe and offer only a few of the hundreds 
of different hardy perennial plants which we grow. There is probably no 
larger collection of such material on the American continent. Send for our 
complete catalogue, or write us about your wants. Better still, come to see what 
we have. 
For this autumn we have a fine stock of the plants listed here, all of which have 
proved beautiful and worthy. We recommend them all. 
We prepay charges on all these herbaceous plants but, because of the expense of 
packing and shipping, we cannot accept orders for plants amounting to less than $5.

orange and yellow shades, on long stems. 
Showy garden plants, and effective as cutting

till August.

trumpets of rich golden yellow. Blooms in

BOBBINK & ATKINS 
Rutherford ♦ New Jersey 
JAPANESE IRIS 
Iris Kaempferi 
Entirely unlike the common German Iris, 
these gorgeous flowers arc produced by plants 
which delight in low, swampy ground around 
garden pools. The blooms are very broad and 
flat, and range through innumerable shades of 
blue, purple, and violet, lighted and illu¬ 
minated with white and gold. July blooming. 
Blue Flag. Velvety flowers of deep indigo, 
veined white and lit with a sparkling yellow 
center. 
Crystal. Lovely pale violet with big white 
center and veins. 
Distinction. Light lavender-pink with huge 
yellow blotch in the paler center. 
Ondine. Glittering white tinted with trans¬ 
lucent blue in center. Very large and lovely. 
Red Riding Hood. Deep amaranth suffused 
white and veined silver. 
Robert Craig. Pale gray veined with rich 
violet. Very pretty.

NEW EVERBLOOMING 
CREEPING STRAWBERRY 
Fragaria Rutgen 
An interesting creeper of recent introduc¬ 
tion, very useful as a covering for banks or 
as a foliage plant in the rock-garden. It 
blooms continually, producing long red, 
edible berries throughout the entire growing 
season. We like it very much. 
3 plants for $1; $25 per 100, delivered 
While this handsome flower is not really a rose, but a member of the Buttercup family, it has 
borne this name for centuries as a tribute to its beauty. Its heavy, leathery, evergreen foliage makes 
a superb ground-cover during the summer months, and late in November or December appear 10- 
to 12-inch flower-stems bearing beautiful anemone-like flowers. When first open, the flowers are pure 
white, but they quickly assume delicate pink and rosy tints and continue in good condition for several 
weeks. They should be planted in bold clumps in the lee of some sheltering evergreen or wall, pro¬ 
tected from severe freezing, in order to be enjoyed at their best. See that they have rich soil and a 
well-drained place, but they must not suffer from lack of water at any time. 
If wanted for cut-flowers in winter, it is better to plant them in a coldframe which will protect 
the flowers from dirt and buffeting winter winds. 
3 STRONG PLANTS FOR $3, DELIVERED 
HARDY ASTERS 
Michaelmas Daisies 
Rich in shades of violet, royal purple, and 
tones of lavender-blue, these graceful autumn 
flowers have peculiar beauty in the garden 
and special value as cut-flowers. 
They make a very showy display and 
require only the simplest care. 
Numerous named varieties may be chosen, 
but we have selected these very fine types 
from our large stock for this Special Offer. 
Aurore. A very graceful Aster with rather 
small, dainty rose-pink flowers in sprays 
and starry clusters. Very clear color. 
Skylands Queen. Bold sprays of bright 
lavender-blue flowers with bright golden 
yellow centers. Fine midseason variety, 
better than the old Climax. 
Mrs. F. W. Raynor. A good late-blooming 
Aster with large, deep reddish pink flowers 
in huge trusses. Fine deep color.
