great freedom. The color is a marvelous white,

/^1 • 1 • 11 _ Newer Varieties and 
Hardy Climbing Roses a few that are scarce. 
Including the Ramblers, Cl. Polyanthas, Wichuraiana, Multifloras, Hybrid Noisettes, Setigera and Climbing Chinas 
These Roses are suitable for planting where they can climb on walls, fences, galleries, porches, pil¬ 
lars, pergolas, arches, etc.; in fact, wherever a hardy climber is required. This list includes the Ram¬ 
blers, Climbing Polyanthas, Wichuraianas, etc. 
AMERICAN PILLAR (Conard, 1909)—(C. P.) A sin¬ 
gle flowering variety of great beauty, which ap¬ 
peals to everyone. The flowers are of enormous 
size, three to four inches across, of a lovely shade 
of apple-blossom pink, with a clear white eye and 
cluster of yellow stamens. These flowers are 
borne in immense bunches, 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 
retains its lovely green foliage until the end of 
November, it forms a beautiful decorative subject 
throughout the autumn. A great Rose to grow 
in pots for Easter. 
BRA IS WICK CHARM (Frank Cant, 1914) — (W.) 
For arches, pergolas, or for screens this variety 
is undoubtedly foremost. Deep orange-yellow 
bud shading almost to white on the outer petals 
as the flower expands. The nearest approach to 
the perpetual flowering Wichuraiana. 
CLIMBING AMERICAN BEAUTY (Hoopes Brothers 
& Thomas, 1911)—(H. N.) A seedling from Amer¬ 
ican Beauty with Wichuraiana and Tea blood in 
its veins. The introducers say of it: “Same color, 
size and fragrance as American Beauty, with the 
addition of the climbing habit. Good foliage and 
better blooming qualities. One plant of this new 
Rose will produce twenty times as many flowers 
in' June as the old American Beauty, besides' 
blooming occasionally during the summer. Blooms 
three to four inches'across; has proved perfectly 
hardy and stands heat and drought as well as any 
Rose in our collection.” This Rose has already 
made its mark, and wherever it has been planted 
it has pleased, until today we sell it by the tens 
of thousands. You lose if you are slow' to take 
hold of the “Climbing American Beauty.” It 
grow r s and blooms. 
CHRISTINE WRIGHT (Hoopes Bros. & Thomas, 
1913) — (W.) A most exquisite new Rose, a cross 
between Caroline Testout and an unnamed seed¬ 
ling; it is of strong climbing habit, with large, 
heavy, dark green foliage, which is immune to 
disease. The flowers are double, from three and 
one-half to four inches in diameter, borne singly 
and in clusters, of perfect form, beautiful in the 
bud and in the fully expanded flower; in color a 
most refreshing bright wnld-rose pink; it flowers 
profusely during June, and continues more or less 
throughout the season. 
GEISHA (Geschwind, 1914)—(C. H. P.) Brilliant 
scarlet-crimson. The long shoots are completely 
covered with bloom the entire length. A won¬ 
derfully pretty Rose. 
LE MEXIQUE (Schwartz, 1913) — (W.) Delicate 
silvery-rose, turning to rosy-white, reverse of 
petals light rose. Large for its class. Flowers 
full, opening well, produced in clusters. Contin¬ 
uous and perpetual flowering. 
ORtFLAME (Paul & Son, 1914) — (C. P.) Bright 
vivid rose, suffused with coppery-gold borne in 
bunches of numerous flowers with bold fountain¬ 
like sprays. Extra. 
PAUL’S SCARLET CLIMBER (W. Paul & Son, 1917) 
— (W.) Vivid scarlet, shaded. crimson, makes a 
brilliant display for a long period of time in the 
garden. A wonderful new' climbing Rose. Re¬ 
ceived the gold medal and cup for the best new 
climber at the National Rose Society’s exhibit. 
PINKTAT’SENDSCHOEN (Witterstaetter, 1917)—All 
know that the only fault to find with Tausend- 
schoen is that it at times is too light in color. 
Here we have in Pink Tausendschoen the ideal 
pink Climbing Rose. The color resembles the well 
known Ulrich Brunner Rose with its famous 
cherry-red color.
