Hardy Climbing Roses 
Climbing American Beauty 
A sturdy, vigorous grower, absolutely hardy, throwing strong flower¬ 
ing canes in one season which are covered with dark, glossy foliage that 
is immune to disease and insects. The Roses are 3 to 4 inches in 
diameter, are produced on individual steins, vivid rosy-crimson in 
color, and with the same delicious fragrance as the old American Beauty. 
We have a large stock this year, enabling us to make a special price, 
bn this variety only. Two-year-old, field grown plants, 45c each; 3 for 
$ 1 . 00 , postpaid. 
BLUE RAMBLER (Vielchenblau) . Flowers rosy-lilac when opening, and 
changing to a metallic blue. Covers a large porch in a single season; very 
showy. 
JACOTTE. Large semi-double flowers of orange-yellow tinted copper. Very 
profuse bloomer. Flowers similar to hybrid teas, but borne in clusters. 
PAUL’S SCARLET CLIMBER. Full, double, scarlet flowers cover the entire 
bush in a solid vivid mass of flaming red. The petals do not fade like those of 
many climbing roses, but retain their bright color, and remain in bloom for from 
two to four weeks. 
RED DOROTHY RAMBLER (Excelsa). The most popular red rambler; large 
clusters of rich scarlet. 
SILVER MOON. Long creamy buds opening to gigantic saucer-shaped flowers 
of transparent creamy-white. Extra strong grower. 
SPANISH BEAUTY (Mme. Gregoire Staecheli n). A new type of climbing 
Rose, brought to this country from Spain. The long pointed buds are crimson, 
opening to iridescent pearl-pink splashed with carmine. Large semi-double 
flowers, often measuring 5 inches across, are borne on 12 to 15 inch stems. 
One of the earliest to bloom, free flowering and fragrant, a characteristic 
which is seldom found in hardy climbers. Flowers are followed by large at¬ 
tractive fruits. Vigorous grower; resistant to disease. 
THOUSAND BEAUTIES (Tausendschoen) . A climbing rose which produces 
on the same plant so many different colored flowers that it is impossible to 
describe the variations, hence the fitting name, “Thousand Beauties.” Blooms 
profusely; double flowers in large clusters. The colors run from tender rose 
through the intermediate shades of bright rose and carmine, with white and 
yellow tints showing. 
YELLOW RAMBLER (Goldfinch). Deep yellow buds borne in large clusters, 
opening into cream colored flowers with yellow 7 centers. A strong grower and 
a free bloomer. Fragrant. 
pDIf'lTC The above eight varieties in thrifty, two-vear-old, field grown
