“THE BEST IN ROSES’' 
25 
MERMAID $ .75 
One of the most popular climbers. Immense sulphur yellow single flowers 
with amber stamens. Buds come in huge clusters (often over 40), but it is 
seldom that over two or three in a cluster come out at once. Blooms through¬ 
out the season. Foliage is a deep shiny green; disease resistant. Does not 
require pruning. Excellent as a ground cover. 
CLG. MME. BUTTERFLY $ .60 
Same as the bush variety except that it is a strong climber. Salmon flesh 
with yellow at base of petals. 
CLG. MRS. HERBERT STEVENS $ .60 
A climbing sport of this beautiful white Tea rose. Probably the best white 
rose in commerce. Like all Tea roses, the stems are not strong. The quality 
of the flowers more than makes up for the weakness of the stem. Mildews in 
our location. 
MME. STAECHELIN (Spanish Beauty) $ .60 
A beautiful rose from Spain with long crimson buds that open to large flowers 
of delicate pink with curled petals stained on the outside with crimson. A

yellow. Foliage same glossy green as the bush type. Our best yellow climber.

intense, vivid scarlet blooms, often producing a scattering of summer blooms.

duced in clusters, is about the size of Cecile Brunner and a pale gold shading 
to carmine pink at edge of petals. A strong grower. 
CLG. PRESIDENT HOOVER $ .60 
Extremely vigorous climbing sport, popular bush type. Flowers, foliage same. 
CLG. QUEEN ALEXANDRA (Harkness and Son 1931) $ .60

repeats several times, this is the rose. The first of the season the plant is a 
solid mass of bloom; after that the recurrent bloom is good but not as heavy. 
A strong grower. Rose red and yellow. 
RE VEIL DIJONNAIS (E. M. Buatois 1931) $ .75

climber with a heavy spring bloom, followed by a scattering bloom through¬ 
out the rest of the season.
