Climbing and Rambler Roses 
Climbing- and Rambler Roses are valuable for covering porches, verandas, side-walls, pillars, fences, etc. They are unequalled as 
ornamental plants and will be found as useful for this purpose as any other climber. They are hardy and require very little 
pruning. 
CLIMBING AMERICAN BEAUTY 
A new Rose of great merit. A cross between American Beauty 
and an unnamed seedling. Color a rosy crimson, similar to its 
popular parent, and with the same exquisite fragrance, a quality 
rarely found in Climbing Roses. The plant is of strong habit of 
growth malting shoots rrom 10 to 15 feet in one season, and as 
hardy as an oak. The (lowers are from 3 to 4 inches in diameter, 
of fine form, and are produced ill great profusion, not only in 
May and June, but there is a fair sprinkling of flowers through¬ 
out tile growing season. 90 cts. each, $9 per 12. 
CLIMBING ROSE, LADY GAY 
A new rambler variety of remarkably vigorous growth, with 
(lowers of a delicate cerise-pink, passing to soft, tinted white. 
The effect or a plant in full bloom with the combination of the 
soft white flowers, cherry-pink buds, and deep green or the foli¬ 
age is indeed charming. Strong two-year-old plants, 50 cts. each, 
$5 per 12. 
NEW RAMBLER, TAUSENDSCHOEN 
Tills is an entirely distinct break, not only in ramblers, but in 
climbing Roses generally. The individual (lowers are very large 
lor this type of Rose, being rully 3 Inches across, and of a most 
elegant and graceful form, not stiff or unnatural, but as beautiful 
as a semi-double azalea. In color it is a most delightful shade of 
soft pink when first opening, changing to paler pink when fully 
expanded and finally to white. These are produced in trusses of 
from ten io llfteen flowers. 2-year-old plants, 75 cts. each, $7.50 
per 12. 
AMERICAN PILLAR 
A new single-(lowering variety of great beauty, which appeals to 
everyone. The flowers are of enormous size, 3 to 4 inches across, 
of a lovely shade of pink, with a cluster of yellow stamens. These 
Rowers are borne in immense clusters, and a large plant in full 
bloom is a sight not easily forgotten. They last in perfection a 
long time, and are followed by brilliant red hips or berries, which 
are carried late Into the winter; and as the plant frequently re¬ 
tains its lovely green foliage until the end of November, it forms 
a beauttrui decorative subject throughout the autumn months. 
Strong, two-year-old plants, 75 cts. each, $7.50 per 12. 
DR. W. VAN FLEET 
A Rose, which on account of its dainty color and exquisitely 
shaped buds and flowers, appeals to everyone. The long pointed 
buds are or a rich flesh-pink on stems 12 to 18 Inches long; 
splendid for cutting. 80 cts. each, $8.00 per 12. 
WHITE DOROTHY 
Among Rambler Roses, none has justly gained greater popular¬ 
ity Ilian the beautiful pink Dorothy Perkins. The White Dorothy 
is a duplicate, in all respects save its color, whlqh is a clear, 
glistening while. A decided acquisition to this class of Roses. 
Among the multitude of new Roses offered this is one of the few 
worth planting. Strong, two-year-old plants, 50 cts. each, $5.00 
per 12. 
EXCELSA 
(Red Dorothy Perkins) 
This is a most beautiful Rose and we look to see It supersede 
Crimson Rambler as soon as it is better known. The color Is 
clear, bright crimson with no trace of magenta, and the foliage is 
always clean and glossy, with never any of the mildew winch 
sometimes makes Crimson Rambler unsightly. 50 cts each, $5.00 
per 12. 
NEWPORT FAIRY 
A strong, sturdy grower, with healthy, bright green foliage. 
Produces an abundance of lovely single flowers of deep pink color, 
shaded lighter in center. Charming. 75 cts. each, $7.50 per 12. 
ROSA WICHURAIANA 
In some respects this Rose, which is also known as the “Memorial 
Rose,” is better than Crimson Rambler, although it lacks tiie bril¬ 
liant color of its more advertised contemporary. As a climber lor 
covering porches, trellises and arches, and as a creeper lor cover¬ 
ing steep banks or any ground needing covering, it is unequaled. 
The foliage Is a lustrous shining green. In bloom the plant is liter¬ 
ally covered with exquisitely beautiful single white llowers which 
are followed by an abundant crop of bright red hips or berries, 
which remain on the plant all winter. The Rose is entirely free 
from attacks of Insects or disease, and is absolutely hardy, root 
and branch. Strong two-year-old plants, 50 cts. each, $5.00 per 12. 
ROSA WICHURAIANA HYBRIDS 
AVIATEUR BLERIOT 
(The New Yellow Rambler) 
We have discarded the old Yellow Rambler in favor of tills new 
variety, in which we have a strong-growing plant with beautiful 
glossy, insect- and disease-proof foliage, and bearing large clus¬ 
ters of medium-sized full double nowers of a salTron-yeilow, 
deepening to an almost golden yellow at the center. 90 cts. each, 
$9 per 12. 
CRIMSON RAMBLER 
It is strikingly beautiful, absolutely hardy and no Rose can be 
used for more purposes. As a climber it is unsurpassed, perhaps 
unequalled; as a pot-plant for forcing, the llorists arc linding it 
extremely popular. By keeping it cut down it makes a splendid 
bedding Rose, and a hedge of it is a most beautiful object. 75 
cts. each, $7.50 per 12. 
DOROTHY PERKINS 
This is a splendid new shell-pink climbing Rose. It attracted 
much attention at the Pan-American Exposition, where a bed of 
fourteen-months-old plants produced a show of bloom unequaled 
by any other variety. This new Rose is of the same strong habit 
of growth as Crimson Rambler, and the Rowers are borne in 
clusters of 30 to 40, and sometimes even 50 to 60. The Rowers 
are large for a Rose of this class, very double, sweet-scented and 
of a beautirul shell-pink. Raised from seed of Rosa Wlchuralana 
and crossed with that grand old Rose, Mme. Gabriel Lulzet. Ab¬ 
solutely hardy. The individual nower is larger than the Crimson 
Rambler, and is a beautiful shell-pink In color. 50 cts. each, 
$5.00 per 12, $40 per 100. 
HIAWATHA 
Distinctly different from other Ramblers. Its small, single 
Rowers—deep ruby-crimson, wonderfully bright — accentuated by 
a white eye—are uniquely borne on long trails of 4 0 to 50. This 
Is a charming variety destined to become very popular among 
Rose-lovers. Lovers or single Roses will be delighted with it. In 
our opinion this Rose is the best and most attractive of all the 
recent Wlchuralana and Rambler hybrids, which have been so free¬ 
ly oflered. 50 cts each, $5.00 per 12. 
WICHURAIANA RUBRA. Long, green branches; leaves medium 
size, gffissy green, large clusters of single Rowers, 1 V& to 2 inches 
in diameter, bright scarlet petals tinted orange-red, white at the 
base; numerous orange-red stamens; Rowers in June. 60 cts. 
each, $6 per 12. 
ROSE-PINK ROAMER. This is a hybrid of the Sweetbrier, 
and carries its charcterlstics in bloom, while the growth, which is 
very rampant, partakes more of the Wlchuralana. The single Row¬ 
ers which are produced In close heads are nearly 2 Inches in 
diameter, bright rich pink with almost a white center which 
lightens up the orange-red stamens producing a line effect. 50 
cts. each, $5.00 per 12.
