Climbing Varieties. 
The following kinds are all the best and most suitable climbers for Conservatory and 
outdoor cultivation on Walls, Pillars, Arches, etc., and for pegging down ; all are of 
vigorous habit of growth. It is generally advisable to cut fairly hard back the first time 
of pruning to induce new growth from the base, the next and following years merely shorten 
the longest shoots and take out any weak and surplus wood. It is a good plan to select 
and cut one shoot hard back from year to year, in order that fresh growth may constantly 
be forming from the base and thus prevent the plant from becoming naked below. Roses 
on walls must not be neglected during dry times, and even after a rain it will be noticed 
that some plants have received very little benefit, as probably the shower may have blown 
from a wrong quarter to reach them properly ; all, plants on walls should therefore be 
watched and watered when required, a little liquid manure added will help the growth and 
give colour to the flowers. When planted out under glass keep the temperature of the 
house as low as possible until the plants are established ; syringe the heads daily and water 
at the root when required. In some respects the hints on Cultivation of Pot Roses will 
be found useful for roses planted out under glass, but the pruning of climbing varieties 
will be the same as given above for outdoors.
