CLIMBING AMERICAN BEAUTY 
(See illustration.) Perfect grower, wonderfully hardy and remarkably free 
blooming. Almost the same as ‘‘American Beauty,’’ with smaller flowers. 
Medium size flowers, each produced on separate stems in clusters, vivid rosy 
crimson in color, with delicious fragrance. Borne in greatest profusion for 
weeks. Foliage tough and leathery. Hardy and as sturdy as an oak in all 
localities. For single specimens, trailing over verandas, for trellises, anywhere 
and everywhere, this Rose will give the greatest satisfaction. Once planted 
will last a lifetime. Ours is the genuine stock. Absolutely true to name, on 
its own roots. 
EXCELSA—The flowers are very double, produced in immense trusses of 30 to 40 flow- 
ers to each truss. Color intense crimson. 
GARDENIA—Very sweetly fragrant; creamy-yellow. 
HEART OF GOLD—Hardy climber. Crimson with white at base of petals. 
KEYSTONE 
(See illustration.) Perfectly hardy everywhere, blooms in wonderful profusion. The 
open flower is perfectly double, with buds beautifully formed. Color clear lemon- 
yellow. A fine hardy deep yellow free climber. This is a really great Rose. 
TAUSENDSCHON—Large flowers, with ruffled petals, borne in enormous trusses, from 
10 to 15 in a cluster. Colors vary through shades of yellow, cream, and rose-pink. 
A tremendously vigorous plant, bearing thousands of blooms early in the season and 
continuing late. It is among the most satisfactory of climbers. (See illustration, 
page 18). 
“I was very much pleased with my shipment of Roses. 
Your catalog certainly did not over-rate them for the fine 
plants they were or the condition in which they would be 
when received. They are doing splendidly.” 
—A. C., Columbus, Ohio, May 31, 1941 
WHITE DOROTHY PERKINS—A rampant. grower, and ina short time will cover 
a large trellis. Glistening white. 
PAUL’S SCARLET 
(See illustration. ) 
This great climbing 
Rose is one of the few 
best Roses for home 
planting, blooming freely 
early and then frequently 
in late fall. Color a flam- 
ing scarlet, a striking col- 
or. Makes a brilliant dis- 
play. Hardy everywhere. 
The petals do not fade like 
many climbing Roses. A 
wonderfully strong grow- 
er, quickly making an im- 
mense plant 10 to 20 feet 
high. When in bloom is a 
gorgeous sight. We like it 
better than ‘’Blaze.”’
