strongest and most vigorous Climber. The

hardy, can be depended on to increase in 
beauty every year. MS. $1 each.

Dot, 1927.) Also called “Spanish Beauty.”

grower with good foliage, which we 
recommend highly. L. 
NEW DAWN. LC. (Somerset Rose Nurs.,

Paul & Son, 1916.) Intensely red flowers,

THE FAIRY ROSE

TRAILING ROSES 
The plants in this group, specially selected 
from other classes, are invaluable as ground- 
covers. They are all of low trailing habit, 
hugging the ground closely and will, in a 
short time, cover embankments, hillsides, and 
waste ground. 
All Trailing Roses are 75 cts. each, $6.50 
for 10 of any one variety, except where other¬ 
wise noted. Special price by the 100 or 1000 
will be given on request.

EVERGREEN GEM. R. (W. A. Manda,

attractive. 60 cts. each, $5 for 10. 
HYBRID SWEETBRIERS, 
PENZANCE BRIERS 
Developed from the common Sweet brier 
or Eglantine, Rosa ruhigino.sa, they have 
deliciously scented foliage and bear charming 
single or semi-double flowers along their arch¬ 
ing canes. All of them are strong growers. 
As impenetrable screens or hedges, they are 
unbeatable, and as large specimen shrubs or 
trained as pillars they command attention. 
Pruning: Thin out old dead wood. 
Height: Varies from 10 to 15 feet. 
All these Roses are $1 each, $9 for 10 of any 
one variety, unless otherwise noted
