OTHER RAMBLERS OF RECENT INTRODUCTION 
AND STERLING MERIT 
WALSH'S “BABETTE” 
A new hardy seedling Climbing or Rambler Rose 
of vigorous growth. Flowers double, borne in 
clusters. They are dark crimson, tinged with white; 
a distinct and valuable combination of colors which 
is not duplicated in any other Rose. They wonder¬ 
fully help a crimson or pink Climber by bringing out 
the real beauty of the colors through contrast, 
making a handsome combination for porch adorn¬ 
ment. Field-grown plants, $i each. 
WALSH'S “DELIGHT” 
New single Rambler or Climbing Rose. Vigorous 
grower; glossy foliage; flowers borne in large clus¬ 
ters, many of them having two rows of petals. These 
hang in graceful form and nearly every bud produces 
a flower; color bright carmine, base of petals white, 
center filled with yellow stamens, a most harmonious 
combination of flower and foliage. Perfectly hardy; 
free bloomer until late October. Field-grown plants, 
75 cts. each. 
WALSH'S “DEBUTANTE" 
Beautiful soft pink flowers borne in clusters, 
similar to Crimson Rambler; very fragrant and, 
when open, they have the delicate odor of the Sweet- 
brier. Flowers are double and of uniform size. Foli¬ 
age dark green and glossy. A splendid variety, and 
especially suited for climbing or trailing. Blooms 
freely in July and again a second time in September 
and October. Strong, field-grown, flowering plants, 
75 cts. each. 
WALSH'S “EVANGELINE" 
A distinct variety, with single flowers 2 inches in 
diameter. The foliage is very luxuriant. Flowers 
are borne in large clusters, are white with the tips of 
petals pink; deliciously fragrant. Foliage on the 
young growth is a beautiful bronze-green. The 
contrast of the flowers with the foliage is most 
charming. Evangeline is suitable for pergolas, 
parkways, trellises, or for whatever purposes it may 
be desired. Perfectly hardy. $i each. 
WALSH'S “HIAWATHA" 
This seedling attracted much attention and 
evoked many favorable comments when exhibited 
for the first time at the spring exhibition of the 
Massachusetts Horticultural Society, in March, 
1902. It is a distinctly different type of the beauti¬ 
ful Ramblers. It is a seedling from Crimson Ram¬ 
bler. The flowers are single, and are of deep, intense 
crimson, with the petals shading to a pure white 
at the base, d he foliage is of a light, glossy green. 
The remarkable beauty and the striking effect of a 
plant in full bloom must be seen to be thoroughly 
appreciated. It blooms very freely in June, and gives 
a second lot of lovely flowers in September and 
October. It is undoubtedly one of the best of all 
single Roses. It is an excellent sort for forcing, and 
is well suit ed for climbing or trailing. The plant is 
perfectly hardy and the leaves and stems arc very 
tough and less susceptible to the attacks of in¬ 
sects than any other Rose in this popular class.
