Hardy Climbers 
| lardy Climbers, as a rule, bloom but once each year, but there are a 
few exceptions which you will find noted below. 
The great spectacular show made by a single Climbing Rose makes 
this class valuable and necessary for every garden. 
Climbing Roses can be trained on supports of many kinds, such as 
fences, pillars, pergolas, and trellises; or against garages and other out¬ 
buildings; or merely Ieit to trail on sloping banks. 
The varieties listed here are hardy in ordinary winter weather, with 
little protection, and they will flash to life again in the spring with a display 
of spectacular beauty. 
Most of them are large-flowered, and the blooms make fine cut-llowcrs. 
Try some of the newer ones, as they are unusual departures from the 
old Rambler types.
