Climbing Roses require no pruning in the spring beyond 
the cutting out of very old or dead wood, and the short¬ 
ening of the laterals and long canes to make the growth 
conform to the space to be covered; but a severe prun¬ 
ing in July, directly after they have finished flowering, 
is beneficial. Cutting away at that time all old flower- 
American Pillar Each $0.50, Doz. $6.00 
A single-flowering variety of great beauty. The flowers 
are of large size, 3 to 4 inches across, of a lovely shade 
of pink, with a clear white eye and clusters of yellow 
Stamens, and are borne in immense bunches, and a large 
plant in full bloom is a sight not easily forgotten. 
Bess Lovett Each $0.50, Doz. $6.00 
Large, fairly full flowers of light crimson-red, cup¬ 
shaped, and borne in long-stemmed clusters suitable 
for cutting; sweetly fragrant. Plant very strong, ex¬ 
ceedingly free flowering, with fine, glossy foliage almost 
immune to disease. Better habits than Climbing Amer¬ 
ican Beauty but totally unlike it in color and form. 
Chaplin’s Pink Climber Each $1.00, Doz. $10.00 
Unquestionably the most important acquisition in 
climbing roses since the introduction of Dr. W. Van 
Fleet. It is a cross between Paul's Scarlet and Ameri¬ 
can Pillar, and like its parents is of vigorous growth, 
perfectly hardy, producing its large flowers, similar in 
size and form to Paul’s Scarlet, profusely in strong 
trusses of from 8 to 12 flowers each, but in color a rich 
lively pink. 
Climbing American Beauty Each $0.50, Doz. $6.00 
Its name is somewhat misleading, but it is one of the 
best climing Roses. A strong, healthy, vigorous grow¬ 
er, 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. 
.Dorothy Perkins Each $0.50, Doz. $6.00 
Soft shell-pink; flowering profusely in large clucters. 
Very fragrant and lasting. A grand Rose in every way. 
Dr. W. Van Fleet Each $0.50, Doz. $6.00 
A Rose which, on account of its dainty color and ex¬ 
quisitely 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. 
Flower of Fairfield Each $0.50, Doz. $6.00 
Also called the “Everblooming Crimson Rambler.” Com¬ 
bines 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.

(Everblooming Dr. W. Van 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 Ever¬ 
blooming Climber introduced; a variety 
that every Rose lover will be anxious to 
possess.

ingwood will encourage a vigorous growth, which will 
give an abundance of flowers the following season. 
We offer on this and the next page a selection of twelve 
of the most modern Hardy Climbing and Rambler 
Roses. 
Mary Wallace Each $0.50, Doz. $6.00 
A Pillar Rose, making a fine, strong, self-supporting 
plant 6 to 8 feet high, with large, glossy foliage, bloom¬ 
ing 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. 
Mme. Gregoire Stachelin Each $1.00, Doz. $10.00 
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 irides¬ 
cent pearl pink inside. Very fragrant. 
Paul’s Scarlet Climber Each $0.60, Doz. $7.00 
No other Rose, in any class, can compare 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. 
Silver Moon Each $0.50, Doz. $6.00 
Different from all other Roses, with beautiful semi¬ 
double flowers, 4Y 2 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 at¬ 
tractiveness. 
Star of Persia Each $0.70, Doz. $8.00 
A brilliant new Rose with flowers on the order of the 
lovely old Harrison’s Yellow; semi-double, bright yel¬ 
low, 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. 
White Dorothy Perkins Each $0.50, Doz. $6.00 
A pure white climber, identical with Dorothy Perkins 
except the color. Without doubt the best white climber. 
Wichuraiana Each $0.60, Doz. $7.00 
(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.

Jjiaze 
A marvelous new hardy everblooming 
climbing Rose which inherits the blazing 
color of Paul’s Scarlet Climber and the 
everblooming habit of Gruss an Teplitz, 
thus combining the most attractive 
features of both its parents. It is a very 
vigorous climbing variety which will 
grow to considerable height and produce 
flowers on both the old and the new 
growth. In our opinion, this Rose is 
destined to enormous popularity.

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 Horticul¬ 
tural Society in 1933; also the American Rose Society’s Medal for best Rose 
at their 1933 annual meeting.
