pink flowers. Beautiful in bud and lasts for days. 
★DR. W. VAN FLEET. See back cover. Description page 35. 
★EXCELSA. See back cover. Description page 35. 
★HIAWATHA. Brilliant scarlet; single flowers; very effective. 
★LADY GAY. Large, loose clusters of a delicate cherry-pink. 
★MAY QUEEN. Clear, bright pink; deliciously sweet-scented. 
★MARY LOVETT. Similar to the Dr. W. Van Fleet Rose, 
but this variety is pearly white. The originator, Dr. W. 
Van Fleet, said: “I consider this as altogether the best 
white that has been produced.” 
★MISS MESSMAN (Climbing Baby Rambler). A vigor¬ 
ous-growing sport of the continuous-blooming Crimson 
Baby Rambler; not so free in bloom as the parent. 
★AMERICAN PILLAR. Introduced by the Conard & Jones Company. The grandest single, hardy Climb¬ 
ing Rose known. In wealth of bloom it stands unequaled, producing, as it does, immense masses of 
radiant pink blossoms. The foliage is superb at all times, and canes grow 20 feet in one season. This 
Rose is enthusiastically praised by all who see it. Hardy everywhere. See illustration. 2-yr. size, 
50 cts.; 3-yr., $1; extra-large size, $1.50 □. 
USEFUL AS A CUT-FLOWER 
Adolph Muller, Norristown, Pa., writes: “The single Roses deserve to become more 
popular. On June 28 I cut a big bunch of American Pillar, placed them in a vase on my 
dining-room table, where they remained until the following Sunday without dropping 
their petals. They then commenced to fade after being cut and in water for eight 
days. Don’t think I ever saw a more beautiful bunch of flowers, they are far more 
graceful than the double flowers.” 
★PHILADELPHIA. Splendid flowers, 2% inches across and perfectly 
double; color pure, deep, rich crimson, more intense than the old 
Crimson Rambler. 
★RUBY QUEEN. Rich ruby-red flowers with a clear 
white center. 
★SILVER MOON. Extra-large silvery white, semi-double 
flowers, with a mass of golden stamens, borne on strong 
stems 12 to 18 inches long and delicately scented. Re¬ 
markable also for its beautiful, large glossy foliage. 
TAUSENDSCHON (Thousand Beauties). Pure white 
to deep pink; almost thornless. 2-yr. size only. 
★UNIVERSAL FAVORITE. Clear, bright pink; 
double, in clusters. Splendid for massing on em¬ 
bankments. Plant this with White Dorothy Per¬ 
kins. 
★VEILCHENBLAU (Blue Rose). Rosy lilac, changing 
to metallic blue. 
★WICHURAIANA. Pure white; grows flat to the 
ground; splendid for embankments. The foliage is 
a rich dark green and shines as if varnished.
