THE GOOD & REESE COMPANY WHOLESALE TRADE LIST 
HARDY CLIMBING ROSES—Standard Varieties—Concluded 
GARDENIA (Soupert & Nottlng, 1900)—(W.) Bright yellow 
cream color when open; very fragrant and free; early flow¬ 
er ng. This is the hardy Marechal Niel; double yellow flow¬ 
ering. 
G R , AF ., ZEPP , EL IN (Boehm, 1910)—Coral-red; blooming abun- 
u Sill" la *& e . u , mbeI s i attractive and fascinating. 
HIAWATHA (Walsh, 1905) — (W.) This Hose is just coming 
into its own, being largely forced in pots for Easter time, 
and its good qualities as a grand outdoor climber are be¬ 
coming known. Its flowers are about one and one-half 
inches across, and produced in long, pendulous sprays, with 
frequently from forty to fifty flowers on a spray. In color 
it is brilliant, ruby-carmine, with a clear white eye and a 
mass of golden stamens; strong, vigorous growth, with bright 
green, glossy foliage, which is retained until late in fall. 
LADY GAY (Walsh, 1903)—(W.) Flowers of a deep cherry- 
pink, shading on the edge of the petals to a very delicate 
soft tone of pink. Will cover a large porch or trellis in an 
incredibly short time. Extra fine. 
MADAME ALFRED CARRIERE (Schwartz, 1879) —(H. N.) 
Pure white, suffused with yellow at base of petals; very free 
and very fragrant; fine for arches and pillars. In Ohio this 
is a wonderful Rose, completely hiding itself with flowers. 
In Oregon it grows to the roofs of two-story houses, covering 
the entire side or end of a large sized house, and simply a 
wilderness of blooms. 
MARY WASHINGTON (Origin unknown)—(Mtf.) Pure white, 
perfectly double, in immense clusters; fine. 
PHILADELPHIA RAMBLER (Conard, 1902) —(C. P.) Glowing 
crimson ; large clusters; fine; several shades darker in color 
than Crimson Rambler. 
PRAIRIE QUEEN (Feast, 1843) — (S.) The old standby red 
climber. It is so hardy that it delights in the climate of 
Alaska and Canada. 
RED DOROTHY PERKINS, or EXCELSA (Walsh, 1909) —(W.) 
It is a good deal to claim for a Rose, but we are within 
bounds when we describe Excelsa as a brilliant Crimson 
Rambler flow’er on glossy, varnished Wiehuraiana foliage. 
The defects of Crimson Rambler are its unsightly foliage in 
unseasonable weather, and its defoliation by insects; the in¬ 
fusion of Wiehuraiana blood assures an ornamental climber 
which is nearly evergreen, and this will assure this lovely 
crimson-scarlet pillar Rose a place in every American garden, 
for it is quite hardy in addition to all its other fine points. 
The flowers are very double, produced in large trusses of 
thirty to forty, and almost every eye on a shoot produces 
clusters of flowers. The color is intense crimson-maroon, the 
tips of the petals tinged with scarlet. The finest of all 
Crimson Ramblers. 
RUSSELL'S COTTAGE (Origin unknown) —(Mtf.) Dark red; 
double and full; very hardy. 
SEVEN SISTERS (Origin unknown) — (Mtf.) Crimson to white 
and all intermediate shades; extra. An old favorite. 
TAUSENDSCHOEN, ’ or THOUSAND BEAUTIES (Schwartz, 
1906) — (C. P.) A Climbing Rose that comes to us from Ger¬ 
many. The flowers upon first opening are the most delicate 
shade of pink ever seen in a Rose, might be described as a 
white, delicate flushed pink, changing to rosy-carmine. It 
gets its name from its many flowers and the variation in 
coloring; beautiful; will become as famous as Crimson 
Rambler or Dorothy Perkins. We WTote the above a year 
ago. and now we can add that this Rose is sweeping the 
country like a prairie fire. Simply a wonder. 
TENNESSEE BELLE (Origin unknown) —(Mtf.) Beautiful 
pink; free bloomer; an old standby. 
TRIER (Lambert, 1904)—(C. P.) Large clusters of creamy- 
white blooms, with dark yellow anthers, flowering freely; 
quite hardy. 
VEILCHENBLAU, THE BLUE ROSE (Schmidt, 1909) —(C. P.) 
This is a much better Rose than some give it credit for. It 
opens a reddish-violet, quickly changing to violet-blue. 
WHITE DOROTHY PERKINS (B. R. Cant, 1908) —(W.) It has 
been the cry of nurserymen for years for a white climber 
that would rank up with Crimson Rambler, and now we 
have the pleasure of offering this White Dorothy Perkins, 
that in every way is the equal, if not superior, to Crimson 
Rambler as a red, and Dorothy Perkins as a pink. This 
Rose has no rival as a white climber. 
YELLOW RAMBLER, or AGLAIA (Lambert, 1896) —(C. P.) 
Bright yellow changing to canary-yellow; produced in 
pyramidal clusters of fifty or more blooms. 
Moss Roses 
These are probably a sport of the Cabbage Rose. The origin of the double Moss Rose is left to conjecture. They have always 
been favorites, for what can be more elegant than the bud of the Moss Rose and more delicious than its fragrance. Perfectly 
hardy. 
ELIZABETH ROWE (Rowe, 1866)—This is an old favorite MOUSSELINE (Robert and Moreau. 1881)—Pure white flower, 
with its large deep pink buds well mossed. A beauty. j buds heavily and beautifully mossed. 
HENRI MARTIN (Portner, 1863)--Large, full flower of deep PRINCESS ADELAIDE (Laffay, 1845)—Deep blush-pink with 
red; well mossed; fragrant. I buds that are thoroughly mossed. 
Miscellaneous Roses 
Under this heading are listed all the Roses not embraced in the different families or types that we name in the preceding pages. 
AMOENA, The Pink Flowering Cherokee Rose (Ilockbridge, 
1909) — (L.) This wonderful beautiful new Laevigata or 
Cherokee Rose, was raised in California, and it will sweep 
the state like wild-fire when it is once known. The flowers 
are the same as the White Flowering Cherokee, except that 
the color is a glowing pink with a golden-yellow center. Re¬ 
sembles huge apple blossoms. Stock scarce. We have a 
fine lot. 
ARTHUR R. GOODWIN (Ternet Ducher, 1909) —(A. B.) This 
is a genuine “Pernetiana," and is perfectly hardy every¬ 
where. The color is coppery orange-red, passing to salmon- 
pink as the flowers expand. A superb combination of color; 
flowers medium to large and full. Should prove a valuable 
garden Rose. 
DOUBLE LAEVIGATA, or the Double Flowering Cherokee 
(California, 1900) — (L.) A beautiful hardy Rose, bearing 
double white flowers; very fine. Foliage is very distinct. 
LAEVIGATA, the Single White Cherokee Rose (Lindley, 1820) 
— (L.) This is the famous Cherokee Rose so well known in 
California. Large, pure white flowers with center filled with 
golden-yellow anthers. 
MADAME EDWARD HERRIOTT (Pernet Ducher)—(A. B.) 
“The Daily Mail Rose." Winner of the gold cup wiiich was 
offered by the London Daily Mail, for the best new Rose, ex¬ 
hibited at the International Horticultural Exhibition, held in 
London, England, May, 1912 (this was the greatest horti¬ 
cultural exhibition ever held) and to be known as the Daily 
Mail Rose. In competition with the world's greatest ro- 
sarians for this much coveted prize was awarded to M. 
Pernet Ducher for this wonderful novelty. It was again ex¬ 
hibited in London on May 1, 1913, at the exhibition of the 
National Rose Society of England, where it was awarded the 
Society's gold medal. M. Pernet Ducher describes its color 
as follows: “Buds coral-red, shaded with yellow at the base, 
the open flowers of medium size, semi-double, are of a 
superb coral-red, shaded with yellow and bright rosv-scarlet, 
passing to shrimp-red." A wonderful Rose. The bud is long, 
slender and pointed, the color is like sunshine on a copper- 
red metal. 
MADAME GEORGES BRUANT (Bruant, 1888)—(R.) Paper 
white, larger, very free and distinct, flowering in clusters; 
most beautiful. 
NEW CENTURY (Conard, 1891) —(R.) A grand Rose that is 
entirely hardy, bearing beautiful silvery-pink flowers in 
clusters. This Rose is in bloom all the time. Extra fine 
for nurserymen. 
SIR THOMAS LIPTON (Conard, 1905) — (R.) The best pure 
white Rugosa Rose. Strong and vigorous; grows four feet 
high. Flowers perfectly double, pure snow-white. Fragrant, 
borne on long stems continuously throughout the season. Ab¬ 
solutely hardy everywhere. Splendid for hedging, cemetery 
and park work. 
VISCOUNT ENFIELD (Pernet Ducher, 1910) —(A. B.) Cop¬ 
pery old-rose, shaded with yellow. The inner petals are 
deeply tinted with carmine, while the center ones are some¬ 
times striped with yellow. Flower large, full, elongated; 
very fioriferous. 
WHITE BAN KSI A, or Lady Banks (Keer, 1807) — (L. B.) A 
vigorous grower, in California growing to the top of tall trees 
and completely enveloping the entire tree; small double, pure 
white flowers in clusters, with true violet fragrance. In¬ 
deed, if one were blindfolded, he could not detect the odor 
from Violets. Very desirable. 
WICHURAIANA, or MEMORIAL ROSE (Dr. Wichura, of Japan, 
1886) — (W.) It is difficult to conceive anything more appro¬ 
priate, beautiful and enduring for covering graves and plots 
in cemeteries than the Hardy Memorial Rose. It creeps 
along the ground as closely as an Ivy. The flowers are pro¬ 
duced in lavish profusion in July. They are single, pure 
white, with a golden-yellow disc, five to six inches in cir¬ 
cumference. It is also immensely valuable as a Climbing 
Rose, covering arches, fences, etc. 
WILLOWMERE (Pernet Ducher, 1913)—(A. B.) Color rich 
shrimp-pink, shaded yellow in the center, and toning to car¬ 
mine-pink towards the edges of the petals. Vigorous growth, 
and erect, branching habit. Long carmined coral bud on 
long, stout flower stalks. Very large flower, full, and of 
elongated cup shape. A superb Rose. 
YELLOW BAN KSI A. or LADY BANKS (Damper, 1827)—(L. 
B.) Same as White Banksia, except color of bloom is 
sulphur-yellow. Has the same delicious Violet fragrance.
