HARDY EVERBLOOMING CLIMBING ROSES 
Gentlemen: Your roses 
received and I cannot re¬ 
sist the opportunity for a 
word of praise for your 
two-year rose plants. I 
say, without hesitation, 
that they are the best¬ 
looking and the best- 
packed plants I ever re¬ 
ceived. I have no ob¬ 
jection to you referring 
anyone to me as to the 
good quality of your flow¬ 
ers. Mr. J. P., 
Winston-Salem, N. C. 
These are the Roses that will add so much to the beauty of your home; 
especially for porch or trellis, or for covering an arbor or archway. 
Your success and satisfaction will depend mainly upon two things: get 
kinds suited to the conditions of your place and climate, and then give them 
plenty of good, rich soil deeply mellowed. 
There are two distinct classes of Climbing Boses: 
1. The hardiest (including such as Philadelphia, Dorothy Perkins, etc., 
see pages 32 to 34), which burst forth into magnificent masses and clusters of 
bloom about the middle of spring, and continue beautiful for three to six weeks 
on into summer. 
2. The other class are the Climbing Tea, Hybrid Tea or Everblooming 
Roses, most of them hardy in this latitude with protection. If favorably located 
they often bloom luxuriantly from May until November. See this and following 
two pages.
