MERITORIOUS HARDY CLIMBERS 
Gentlemen:— 
The Rose, Dr. Van Fleet, is without question 
one of the finest that I or my friends have ever 
seen in that species. It is beyond my ama¬ 
teurish efforts to properly describe it.

★AMERICAN PILLAR. This rose is the most popular, 
single, hardy climber in existence. Its rich, rosy pink 
flowers are exquisitely lovely and are produced in such 
abundance as to almost hide the dark green, insect-

the ground. It makes thick canes, 20 feet long, in one 
season or can be kept in bush form if desired for a lawn 
specimen. (Extra size plants $2.00, by express.).

bright pink, and deliciously sweet-scented.

roses of many different shades.

★WHITE RAMBLER. (Thalia). Pure white flowers. 
★RUBY QUEEN. Rich, ruby red, with clear center. 
★SWEETHEART. Color bright blush-pink in the bud, 
which fades to soft white when open. Deliciously fragrant

every imaginable shade, from pure white to deep pink. 
Almost thornless. (See cut).. .. .
