YOUR LAST CHANCE 
Order at once If you would have this wonderful 
Climbing American Beauty 
In Your Garden This Summer 
O UR Climbing American Beauty Rose is a hardy plant that will 
thrive and bloom and grow out in the open. It comes out a 
mass of gorgeous, fragrant blossoms in June and continues 
blooming occasionally during the growing season. Each flower is a 
perfect American Beauty Rose, three to four inches in diameter and 
rich in perfume. 
Our Climbing American Beauty Rose has large, bright, glossy, 
green leaves, that remain on the bush all summer, giving it a most 
pleasingly ornamental appearance. There is no other rose so per¬ 
fectly suited to a place in the gardens of American rose lovers. If 
you would have one in your garden you should act quickly, as now 
is the time to set them out. We are carrying one-year-old Climbing 
American Beauty Roses in pots now so they can be planted outside 
as late as June. We will send you, postpaid, one of these plants, or 
as many more as you wish, ready for planting, at $ 2.00 each. 
ORDER NOW —Every time this summer you look at the spot in 
your garden where a climbing American Beauty should be, you will 
reproach yourself for negligence unless you act at once. Order now 
or you will be a whole year without this wonderful plant in your 
garden.
