Listed under patented roses, page 11. 
CLG. ROSE MARIE $ .60 
A climbing sport of that old favorite bush rose, Rose Marie. Buds are large 
globular, moderately fragrant and a clear rose pink. Fine stems and foliage. 
CLG. SHOT SILK $ .60 
Another fine climber. A sport of the well known bush variety that is satis- 
factory in all localities. Flowers slightly larger than the bush type and of 
the same orange-rose color suffused with pink. Glossy foliage. 
SOLEIL D’ORIENT $ .79 
The buds are long pointed opening to a very large double rose of Indian red 
shaded yellow. Very prolific in spring bloom only. 
SOUV. DE CLAUDIUS DENOYEL $ .60 
Splendid as a pillar rose. The long pointed velvety rose buds open to large 
blooms of rich crimson scarlet, which are very fragrant. Blooms intermittently 
all season. Disease resistant foliage. 
CLG. SOUV. DE MME. BOULLETT $ .60 
An old favorite. Long pointed buds of dark cadmium yellow. One of the best 
yellow climbers. A free spring bloomer, spreading grower, and quite free of 
disease. 
SOUV. DE MME. JULES PAGES (Victor Reiter, Sr., 1937) $ .60 
This is an outstanding polyantha climber with exceptionally clean foliage. 
Blcoms are about the size of Cecile Brunner, but of a deep pink color with 
orange and red shadings. Blooms in clusters intermittingly throughout the 
season. Foliage a dark glossy green; growth from six to ten feet. 
SUNGOLD (Geo. C. Thomas, Jr., 1939) $1.00 
This is one of the finest yellow climbers we have seen in many a day. The 
buds are long, pointed and a clear golden yellow. As a rule, the buds come 
singly on long strong stems and are freely produced throughout the season. 
The plant is a strong climber with clean glossy foliage. In the two years we 
have grown it, it has been absolutely free of disease. 
CLG. TALISMAN $ .60 
A very vigorous climbing sport of the bush variety. Very floriferous. 
CLG. QUEEN ALEXANDRA $ .60 
The first to bloom in the spring and the last in the fall. An ovoid bud that 
opens to a large double, fragrant rose of intense vermillion shade old gold 
with an orange base. Bush is a moderate grower with glossy foliage. Not 
recommended for cutting. 
PLEASE NOTE! 
We have a limited number of the old-fashioned roses and shall 
be glad to send a list of varieties to anyone interested.
