HARDY ROSES 
The following Rugosa Roses are absolutely hardy, grown on their own roots, hence will 
not sucker. Rugosa Roses produce bloom throughout the summer and fall. Excellent both for 
shrubs and flowers. We offer the following list of Hybrid Rugosa Roses: 
Agnes. Beautiful new Hybrid Rugosa; pure yellow. Developed by the Government Station at 
Ottawa, Kansas. Parentage double Rugosa and Persian Yellow. Fine double; wonderful 
foliage; perfectly hardy. The only known pure yellow Rugosa. 
Amelie Gravereaux. The newest and choicest of Rugosa Hybrids. The flowers are a rich red 
American Beauty color, large, single stem blossoms, of rich fragrance. It is a liberal bloomer 
—often carrying a dozen blooms within eight weeks after planting. A hardy and thrifty bush 
of beautiful foliage—a real attraction as a shrub. We consider this new creation the "Rose 
Par Excellence” for the Northwest. 
Belle Poitevine. Double pink Hybrid Rugosa. Foliage heavy, very hardy. One of the most 
prolific and satisfactory Hybrid Rugosas. Blooms heavily the first season and throughout 
the summer. 
Dr. E. M. Mills. Seedling of Hugonis. The same 
acaciadike type of foliage, but grows lower, more 
compact, with long, arching branches. Covered 
in spring with a wreath of blush pink Roses. 
Very valuable in foundation or borders. 
Grootendorst. Clear bright red. This novelty has 
become extremely popular. Stocks selling short 
every year. Flowers are borne in clusters, nearly 
double with edges beautifully fringed. Blooms 
continuously from early summer until late fall. 
Grootendorst, Pink. This popular new Rose de¬ 
veloped from a pink sport bud of the red 
Grootendorst. Otherwise the same. 
Hansa. Deep violet-red. Very large, perfectly 
double, fragrant. In this fine variety, unlike 
most of its class, the buds of each cluster open 
at about the same time, giving the effect at a 
distance of a single Rose of immense size. The 
foliage is particularly dark, rich green and the 
bush absolutely hardy. 
Agnes 
Hansa RUGOSA ROSES Sir Thomas Lipton 
Amelie Gravereaux 
Sir Thomas Lipton. Pure white. Fragrant, perfectly dou¬ 
ble. The type of bush is similar to the Amelie Graver- 
eaux and makes an excellent white to plant with that 
beautiful red. 
Harrison’s Yellow. A perfectly hardy rose, strong grow¬ 
ing bush covered in early June with a mass of small semi- 
double, golden yellow flowers, very fragrant. Thrives in 
any soil and will stand rather dry conditions. Very de¬ 
pendable. 
TENDER ROSES 
The following are the best selections of tender roses. 
These may be grown in the Northwest by giving proper 
winter covering. 
Frau Karl Druschki. A grand white Rose with finely 
formed large blossoms. A dependable and profuse 
bloomer. 
Gruss an Teplitz. Blooms of medium size, darkest red, in 
great profusion. Plants very bushy and vigorous. 
A wonderful Rose for bedding. 
Paul Neyron. Great, well-formed blooms of lively pink. 
Red Radiance. Vigorous, upright, bushy plants, bearing a 
continuous supply of very large, beautiful, deep red 
flowers. 
CLIMBING ROSES 
Dorothy Perkins. Clear cherry-pink, slightly fragrant flow¬ 
ers borne in great profusion, and lasting for a long time. 
They are double and the petals crinkled, which gives 
them a delightful fluffy appearance. Foliage is glossy 
bright green, and persists until cold weather. 
Excelsa. “A Red Dorothy Perkins.” An intense crimson, 
with the edges of the petals a little lighter, produced in 
immense clusters. Very similar to Crimson Rambler, but 
much superior to it in color of flower, and in the glossy, 
disease-resistant foliage. 
HARDY CLIMBING VINES 
SILVER LACE VINE - Polygonum Aubcrti 
A practical hardy vine which has sprung into new 
popularity. Fine foliage, fresh and shiny which pro¬ 
duces an extravagance of large, foamy flower sprays in 
silvery white from late summer into the fall. 
CLEMATIS, Andre. Flowers large, of a beauti¬ 
ful, bright velvety red; free-flowering and con¬ 
tinuous bloomer. 
C. Jackmani. Very profuse blooming with flowers 
from four to six inches in diameter, of an intense 
violet-purple; borne in continuous masses on the 
summer shoots. Best sort for general planting. 
C. Henryi. Fine bloomer, flowers large, of a beau¬ 
tiful creamy white, generally of from six to 
eight petals. June to October. 
C. paniculata. Of rapid growth, quickly covering 
trellises and arbors with handsome, clean, glossy 
foliage. Flowers medium size, fragrant, pure 
white, borne in immense sheets in September, 
when few other vines are in bloom; hardy. 
HONEYSUCKLE, Scarlet Trumpet (Lonicera). 
The old garden favorite, blooms all summer, 
producing the most brilliant orange-scarlet flow¬ 
ers. Foliage rich, glossy green, 
IVY, American (Sometimes called Woodbine and 
Virginia Creeper). A native of the Dakotas. 
Absolutely hardy and vigorous. A more rapid 
grower than Engelmann’s Ivy but it requires a 
trellis upon which to climb. 
I., Engelmann’s (Ampelopsis Engelmanni). The 
best climbing vine for this climate, to cover 
brick or stone walls or any rough surface, as it 
clings without a trellis. It is a very rapid grow¬ 
er, often growing 15 to 20 feet in a single 
season. In appearance it resembles the Common 
Virginia Creeper, but the leaves are smaller 
and the whole vine presents a neater appearance. 
Striking autumn foliage. 
CHINESE MATRIMONY VINE. Especially 
valuable to cover a bare, rocky or weed-covered 
bank; of very vigorous growth. Covered with 
red berries.
