Cli MBiNG Teas 
Here we have a class that combine the Noisette and Climbing Tea Roses. In the 
latter class are found such vigorous growing varieties as Marechal Nlel. In the 
South and California these are the Roses of all Roses, growing as no others grow, 
and enriching the entire Summer with their unstinted blooms. Their grace, luxu¬ 
rious foliage, and handsome flowers, please the the most fastidious. I have before 
me a photograph, received from one of my customers residing at Los Angeles, Cal., 
showing a Lamargue Rose, which clambers over a good part of her dwelling, and, at 
the time the photograph was taken had more than three thousand buds and flowers. 
This class is also quite useful in the North for growing in conservatories, pits and 
AND Noisettes. 
greenhouses, where they reward the extra care and protection by producing thou¬ 
sands of their magnificent blooms. 
Price, except where noted, first size, growing In three-inch pots, 25 cents 
each. Second size, 10 cents each, except where noted. 
America.—An old Noisette Rose of strong and vigorous growth, very large and 
double, creamy yellow, to coppery yellow. 
Beauty of tireenmonnt.—Dark red, very hardy and vigorous, medium size. 
Celine Forrestler.—Deep sulphur yellow, large, full form, perfectly double, de¬ 
lightfully fragrant, one of the hardiest and best.
