Grade, $1.75; No. 1 Grade, $1.50. 
FLASH. This most spectacular of all climbers 
makes about 8-foot canes in the North so 
that it is best used as a pillar, or spread out 
on a fence, trellis, or wall. The 33/2-inch 
blooms have about 20 petals and a rich 
fruity fragrance. Brilliant scarlet with a red¬ 
dish yellow reverse. Blooms from late May

centers. Vigorous climber; blooms late. 
Extra Grade, 90 cts.; No. 1 Grade, 75 cts. 
BLAZE. The new scarlet climber, of identical 
color as Paul’s Scarlet Climber. In order for 
Blaze to show the “everblooming” qualities 
claimed for it by the introducers, it must be 
planted in a fully exposed location. Train 
the new branches horizontally and irregu¬ 
larly so they will get full sunlight the whole 
year. To get repeat blooms, cut or pinch the 
first faded flowers from the tip of the stems; 
do not cut with long stems. Patent 10.
