HARDY CLIMBING AND RAMBLER ROSES—Continued. 
Chaplin’s Pink Climber. Unquestionably the most important ac¬ 
quisition in climbing- Roses since the introduction of Dr. W. Van 
Fleet. It is a cross between Paul’s Scarlet and American Pillar, 
and like its parents is of vigorous growth, perfectly hardy, pro¬ 
ducing its large flowers, similar in size and form to Paul’s 
Scarlet, profusely in strong trusses of from 8 to 12 flowers each, 
hut in color a rich lively pink. $1.00 each; $10.00 per doz. 
Climbing American Beauty. Its name is somewhat misleading, 
but it is one of the best climbing Roses. A strong, healthy, 
vigorous grower, frequently making shoots from 10 to 12 feet 
long, and good sized flowers for a climbing Rose that blooms 
so freely. Color a pleasing rose-pink; of splendid form, good 
substance. 50c each; $6.00 per doz. 
Dorothy Perkins. Soft shell-pink; flowering profusely in large 
clusters. Very fragrant and lasting. A grand Rose in every 
way. 50c each; $6.00 per doz. 
Dr. W. Van Fleet. A Rose, which on account of its dainty color 
and exquisitely shaped buds and flowers, appeals to everyone. 
The long, pointed buds are of a rich flesh-pink on stems 12 to 
18 inches long. Splendid for cutting. 50c each; $6.00 per doz. 
Flower of Fairfield. Also called the “Everblooming Crimson 
Rambler.” Combines the beauty of the well known Crimson 
Rambler with the continuous-blooming habit, the new growth 
bearing large clusters of crimson blooms through the summer 
continuously. 50c each; $3.00 per doz. 
Golden Climber. A departure in Yellow Climbing Roses. Extreme 
hardiness, combined with blooms of Hybrid Tea type and quality 
which hold their color. Flowers always come solitary on stiff 
strong stems, often 18 inches or longer, and are 4 to 5 inches 
in diameter, making a cut flower which has no equal. Golden 
Climber has fragrance, so much lacking in our newer Roses of 
today. It is able to withstand sub-zero temperatures and stays 
“put” anywhere. Its handsome, glossy foliage, green wood, and 
red thorns are ornamental, even when it is out of bloom. Its 
beauty is long lasting. Handsome “Vine” to cover a fence, 
trellis, porch, pergola, or garage wall. Golden Climber won the 
Gold Medal awarded by the Massachusetts Horticultural Society 
in 1933; also the American Rose Society’s Medal for best Rose 
at their 1933 annual meeting. Bach, $2.00; $20.00 per doz. 
Mary Wallace. A Pillar Rose, making a fine strong, self-support¬ 
ing plant 6 to 8 feet high, with large, glossy foliage, blooming 
with great freedom in spring and bearing a large number of 
fine buds in summer and fall. Flowers very large, generally 
exceeding 4 inches across; well formed, semi-double, of a bright, 
clear rose-pink with salmon base. 50c each; $6.00 per doz. 
Mme. Gregoire Stachelin. The plant is of strong climbing habit 
growing 12 feet or more high and has large disease resistant 
foliage. At the tips, the long pointed buds are crimson at first 
as the sepals divide, then the firm outer petals show splashes 
of carmine as the flower opens with an iridescent pearl pink 
inside. Very fragrant. $1.00 each; $10.00 per doz. 
New Dawn (Everblooming Dr. W. A^an Fleet). A sport from 
Dr. W. Van Fleet which is universally acknowledged as the 
best and most popular American Climbing Rose. Identical in 
every way with its parent in size and formation of its flowers, 
color, etc., but blooms continuously throughout the summer and 
fall. The first Everblooming Climber introduced; a variety that 
every Rose lover will be anxious to possess. $1.50 each; $15.00 
per doz. 
Paul’s Scarlet Climber. No other Rose, in any cla^s, can com¬ 
pare with it for brilliancy of color, which is a vivid scarlet. 
Flowers are semi-double, very freely produced in clusters of 
from 3 to 20 flowers each on much branched canes. It is of 
strong climbing habit and perfectly hardy. One of the most 
popular climbing Roses. 60c each; $7.00 per doz. 
Silver Moon. Different from all other Roses, with beautiful semi¬ 
double flowers, 4 Vo inches and over in diameter; pure white in 
color, petals of great substance, beautifully cupped, forming a 
Clematis-like flower. The large bunch of yellow stamens in the 
center adds to its attractiveness. 50c each; $6.00 per doz. 
Star of Persia. A brilliant new Rose with flowers on the order of 
the lovely old Harrison’s Yellow; semi-double, bright yellow, 
and about 3 inches across. It makes a striking low climber or 
pillar Rose from 8 to 10 feet high, bursting into showers of 
sparkling bloom in June. It does not fade and the flowers last 
several weeks. 70c each; $8.00 per doz. 
White Dorothy Perkins. A pure white climber, identical with 
Dorothy Perkins except the color. AVithout doubt the best white 
climber. 50c each; $6.00 per doz. 
Wichuraiana (Memorial Rose). Pretty, fragrant single pure white 
flowers with yellow stamens followed in fall by bright red hips 
or berries, a good climber where no great height is required, 
especially valuable for a trailing plant, forming a dense mat of 
almost evergreen foliage. 60c each; $7.00 per doz.
