Most of the finest climbing Roses are Climbing Hybrid Teas (Cl. H. T.) and all the Roses 
described below belong to this group unless some other abbreviation follows the name. 
Chiquila. (Little Girl) Miniature. (Moore, 
1937) This loveliest of all miniature Roses 
is described fully on page 3 of this catalog. 
Cl. Cecile Brunner. Mult. A strong climb¬ 
er that blooms the whole season through, 
producing great quantities of perfect lit¬ 
tle miniature pink buds and flowers. Much 
used for corsages. 
Countess Of Stradbroke. For those who 
want perfection in a red Rose, this new 
climber from Australia will meet every 
requirement. In form the buds and flow¬ 
ers are second to none. The color is a 
beautiful shade of dark unfading red and 
has shown no tendency to blue with age. 
The plant is a moderate climber and has 
shown remarkable resistance to Rose dis¬ 
eases. The flowers are carried on good 
stems for cutting and are produced 
throughout the growing season. 
Cl. Dainty Bess. A single climber that is 
almost continuously in bloom from April 
to November. The name is very approp- 
priate—the slender rosy-salmon buds are 
held daintily on thin, wiry stems. When 
open the flowers have broad, fimbriated 
petals of pale rose. The large cluster of 
wine-colored stamens add a distinctive 
touch to this delightful Rose. The bush 
form of this Rose has attained great popu¬ 
larity and this climber has all the quali¬ 
ties to make it the most popular single 
climbing Rose. 
Cl. Feu Joseph Looymans. A new and 
extremely fine climber. Big orange-yel¬ 
low buds and flowers carried on fine stems 
for cutting. This new variety will take 
its place at the top of the list. 
Cl. Hadley. Not a new Rose but still pop¬ 
ular because of its many good qualities. 
No Rose has yet surpassed Hadley in per¬ 
fection of form. 
Harriett. A new climbing Rose with all 
the qualities to make it popular. The 
perfectly formed, very fragrant buds and 
flowers are of medium size—the color is 
golden-yellow in the center, paling slightly 
on the outer petals. They are produced 
on fine stems and keep well when cut. 
The young foliage is a beautiful bronze- 
green and the plant will often send out 
new canes twelve to fifteen feet in a single 
season. Use this superb climber wherever 
you want free growth and good coverage 
with a wealth of perfect, fragrant flowers 
for cutting. 
Cl. Mrs. E. P. Thom. One of our favorite 
yellow climbing Roses. It is like the bush 
Rose of the same name described else¬ 
where in this catalog and has all its good 
qualities with the addition of good climb¬ 
ing habit. 
Mermaid. H. Brae. Mammoth, pale sul¬ 
phur-yellow, fragrant, single flowers 5 to 
6 inches across. Often produced in great 
clusters of 20 to 40, but they never open 
more than four at one time. A hardy, free 
climbing plant that blooms all summer. 
Cl. Pres. Herbert Hoover. A free climb¬ 
ing sport of the very popular bush Rose of 
the same name. Our parent bush has the 
everblooming habit not found in most 
climbers of this variety. It still has flow¬ 
ers at this date, November 15. 
Cl. Talisman. Words fail when one tries 
to describe the marvelous beauty of this 
climbing Rose. Imagine, if you can, the 
entrancing beauty of this Rose in full 
bloom. Here we have a free climbing, free 
blooming plant that produces great quan¬ 
tities of buds and flowers in the same 
glorious combination of orange, yellow 
and red that we find in the bush Rose of 
the same name. Rates at the top for cut¬ 
ting value or garden decoration. If we 
could have but one climbing Rose it would 
be this one.
