golden color gives it a place that is quite its own. Bloom 
large and double; sweetly scented. 
CLIMBING GRUSS AN TEPLITZ (Storrs & Harrison, 1911.) 
(C. C.)—An exact counterpart of the bush form of that 
superb Rose Gruss an Teplitz except that it is a vigorous 
climber. A perfect sheet of dazzling crimson when in bloom. 
CLIMBING HELEN GOULD (Good & Reese, 1912.) (C. II. T.) 
—Probably no red Rose has held its place secure in the 
hearts of Rose lovers for so long a period as has the beau¬ 
tiful Helen Gould. We have now the pleasure of introduc¬ 
ing this famous Rose in climbing form. Everybody is fa¬ 
miliar with the warm watermelon-red color of its charming 
flowers. This is a grand climber. Be sure and try it. 
CLIMBING LIBERTY (W. Paul & Son, 1909.) (C. H. T.)—A 
climbing form of Liberty. Color brilliant velvety-crimson; 
flowers of good size and beautifully formed; a superb va¬ 
riety for any purpose, the blooms lasting well when cut;

Welche. The color is soft amber-yellow flushed with car¬ 
mine ; a glorious Rose. 
CLIMBING RICHMOND (Alex. Dickson, 1912.) (C. II. T.) 
In all respects except growth identical with the normal 
type, from which it originated. The growth is most vigor¬ 
ous and of true climbing character. On account of its unique 
color and free flowering habit, it is an important addition to 
the climbing rose section. Color, pure rich scarlet. 
CLIMBING WHITE MAMAN COCHET (Xeedle, 1911.) (C. T.) 
—If there is one Rose that stands out in the affections of the 
people more than another it is White Maman Cochet. We 
grow many thousand more plants of White Maman Cochet 
than any other variety. Here we have a climbing form that 
will become as popular a climber as its parent has as a 
bush Rose. Grand, huge white flowers tinged pink.
