Any garden is more colorful, more attractive, more complete with the addition 
of Modern Climbing Roses—especially the newer varieties which produce large, 
double blooms like Hybrid Tea Roses. The great clusters of gorgeous flowers, 1 oP. 




framed by luxuriant foliage, are a most desirable ornament—on porches, trellises, 
garages, fences, pillars, etc. 
Here is the solution, too, for those who wish to enjoy the thrilling beauty and 
fragrance of Roses where space is limited. Beautiful blooms can be produced for

Lougert-Clooming Hardy Yellow Cimber 
(Plant Patent No. 586) 
. King Midas blooms in profusion 
KEY 7 

Lovely King Midas 
partly-open bloom 
So shimmering, so regal, so glorious are the lovely, large Hy- 
brid-Tea-like blooms of King Midas that in fancy one can al- 
most see the mythical Persian King touch each red-flushed 
bud, transforming it and all it touches into living, limpid, 
yellow gold. Truly, this blessing of cheer-giving yellow that 
almost completely covers the plant for from three to six 
weeks will bring a blaze of golden glory to pillar, porch, 
pergola, trellis, fence, or brighten a corner of the yard, house 
or garage. You will treasure King Midas with its modern, 
high-centered, tight buds and lovely large Hybrid-Tea-like 
flowers, in clusters of four to six. Another creation of 
Dr. Nicolas and our own department of plant research, there 
is no other like King Midas; no other color so urgently 
needed in Modern Climbers.
