Paul J. Howard's Climbing Roses 
The Climbing Rose is the Glory 
of the California Garden 
It adds immeasurably to the colorful beauty of the garden when free¬ 
ly planted in prominent positions on trellises, arbors, pergolas, and fences. 
Our many new varieties of Everblooming Climbers bring you numer¬ 
ous novel forms and colors hitherto not obtainable in Climbing Roses, 
which, in addition to their effectiveness in the landscape, furnish a wealth 
of flowers for cutting.
