EVERBLOOMING CLIMBING HYBRID TEAS, ETC. 
W ITH one exception these are the only true everblooming 
Climbers that we know of to date. In southern states they 
are glorious, bearing full crops of Hybrid Tea flowers all 
season, and with careful winter protection they can fill a long-felt 
want in northern states. Untie the plant from its support, loosen 
the roots on one side, lay the branches on surface of soil, and cover 
with about 6 inches of soil. This simple procedure is carried out very 
suceessfully every year in many of the New England gardens where 
everblooming Climbers are used. 
Pruning: Retain old and new wood, cutting out only dead or 
exhausted wood. 
All these Climbing Roses are $1 each, $9 for 10
