B. & A. TAXUS MAKES A FINE GARDEN HEDGE 
EVERBLOOMING SEMI-CLIMBING ROSES 
Lambertiana, Captain Thomas’s, Pemberton’s, and Other Types 
W E FORMERLY offered these Roses in separate groups, but 
similar habits of growth and the fact that we keep acquiring 
new varieties from different introducers have forced us to group 
them together. They are all strong-growing, shrubby plants which 
flower in June and July on the old wood and continue to flower through¬ 
out the summer on strong canes produced from the base of the plant. 
Their heights range from 5 to 8 feet, and they are valuable for small 
pillars, fences, or as strong shrubs. 
Pruning; Retain old wood and new wood. Cut out only dead and 
surplus wood. 
All these Roses are $1.25 each, $10 for 10 of any one variety

STANDARD OR TREE ROSES 
N othing adds more to the appearance of a Rose-garden than some Standard Roses, 
yet their general use has been limited because of imagined difficulties in mainte¬ 
nance and winter protection. 
Plant in spring and stake securely, tying them with strips of rubber or cloth to prevent chaf¬ 
ing the stems, and then treat the crown like any Hybrid Tea. 
Pruning: Cut back the crowns of freshly planted Standards to 3 or 4 eyes. Subsequent 
pruning consists of cutting back the past season’s growth to 3 or 4 eyes. 
Winter Protection: Cut the plant away from the stake, then bend the stem slowly till 
the head rests on the ground. Loosening the roots with a digging-fork, on the side opposite 
from that in which the plant is to be bent, will allow the bending to be done without too 
much strain. Drive a stake in at the neck and tie securely, then cover the head with soil. 
It is not necessary to cover the stem. 
Many of the following varieties are grown only in limited quantities, and should be ordered 
early to avoid disappointment, or a second choice named in case any varieties are sold out. 
The following Standards are SYz feet high, all on Rugosa stems. $3.50 each, $30 for 10, For
