Dwarf Crimson Rambler. 
(Also called the “BABY RAMBLER.”) 
T HE descriptive name of this extremely valuable new 
Rose, “ Dwarf Crimson Rambler,” seems a 
misnomer, yet nothing is more appropriate, for 
the fame of the “Crimson Rambler” properly be¬ 
longs to it. It forms compact bushes about 2 
feet high when fully grown, and is fully covered 
with clusters of its rich, crimson-rei flowers 
throughout the season. It begins to bloom 
when in small pots and is practically never out 
of bloom for the balance of the year Per¬ 
fectly hardy, it requires no winter care, and 
should improve each year with good culture. 
The coloring is brighter and more persistent 
than in its parent, the “Crimson Rambler,” 
of which it is a seedling. The size of the 
clusters and the number of flowers in each 
are the marvel of all beholders. Its use is 
varied so as to render it invaluable. As a 
bedding variety, to make a low, attractive 
hedge, to border a walk, for planting in cem¬ 
eteries, or for growing in pots in the house, it 
stands alone and must find its way everywhere. 
Remember it is hardy and perpetual-flowering.

C. P. STRASHEIM. 
A very valuable summer-blooming 
Tea Rose. It is distinguished among 
the many meritorious Roses we offer 
for its healthy, vigorous habit and 
its great freedom of bloom. From 
the time the little plants were first 
in bloom in the open ground in May 
it was never out of flower and not a 
sick plant appeared. The color is a 
very delicate shade of primrose- 
yellow with a tint of fawn, the latter 
shade being auite pronounced in the 
centre of the flowers. As the flower 
ages the color lightens toward the 
ends of the petals to a light sulphur- 
yellow, almost white, making a 
charming contrast with the darker 
portions of the flowers, giving a very 
finished and unique appearance to it. 
Like all of theever-bloomingmonthly 
Roses, it is at its best during the 
cool days of spring and fall. (See 
cut.)
