For prices, see page 16. 
American Pillar—A new single rose with blooms 
3 to S inches across, borne in immense clusters; color, 
lovely pink, with bright yellow stamens. Of good 
growth and free-flowering habit, American Pillar seems

sess. As a pot plant it is glorious. 
“Blue Rose”—(See Veilchenblau.) 
Climbing Kaiserin or Mrs. Peary. 
Climbing Perle des Jardines. 
Climbing Paul Neron.

much like Crimson Rambler in habit; color, clear shell 
pink; fragrant. 
Hiawatha — Deep crimson, white at base of the 
petals; a beautiful single variety. 
Lady Gay -The very gayest of decorative roses; 
makes a beautiful pot-plant; a mass of pure pink

perfectly hardy, has glistening foliage, and does not 
spoil readily with rain as do many cluster roses. 
Marechal Neil—Best golden yellow climber for the 
South.

“Red Glorie de Dijon.” 
Trier—Mr. Peter Lambert’s grand, hardy climber,

son Rambler. Very valuable.

or amethyst, sometimes reddish lilac; it is probably the

of any climbing rose in existence.

beautiful rambler, Dorothy Perkins.
