WYANT Blue-Blood ROSES —1943 

1 
The Climbing Roses offered here are the best of their class. Like other styles, the styles in Climbers 
have changed. Very few of the old Ramblers are planted; the demand is almost entirely for the newer 
Climbers which have long stems suitable for cutting, disease-resistant foliage and large blossoms. They 
are not as rampant growers as the old-fashioned Ramblers but a carefully trained plant is a real 
spectacle when in full bloom. Do not prune more than enough to keep plant within bounds. When 
pruning cut out the dead and oldest stems down to the ground. Prune soon after the big June bloom. 
American Pillar. A very vigorous Climber with great 
clusters of pink medium sized flowers having white 
centers and tufts of yellow stamens. A late bloomer. 
Plan on a lot of room for it. 85c. 
Blaze. Plant Patent 10. Bright scarlet blooms of 
medium size are borne in clusters on stems of fair 
length. The plant is covered in June with these balls 
of fire and then again several times during the growing 
season there is considerable bloom. It has strong, 
pillar-type growth. Blooming starts in late Spring. 
$1.00 
Buff King. A very strong grower in pillar form. The 
large semi-double apricot blossoms are similar to 
Doubloons, but are a deeper apricot and the buds are 
longer and more pointed. Midseason bloomer. $1.50. 
Climbing American Beauty. The blossoms come 
out a good red color but in a few days turn to a 
deep pink. They are large and fragrant. Early. 85c. 
Crimson Conquest. Immense trusses of large open 
single flowers. Deep bright red, extremely showy. A 
good vigorous climber. Late June bloomer. $1.00. 
Doubloons. Plant Patent 152. A favorite Climber. One 
of the new Horvath Hybrids. A vigorous, upright 
grower with big, double, bronze-yellow blossoms. 
A very prolific free bloomer which starts blooming 
in mid-Spring and continues over a long period. $1.00. 
Dr. Eckener. A very attractive new hardy Pillar 
which blooms some during the Summer as well as in 
June. Its colors vary according to their age from two- 
toned Talisman shades to a beautiful yellowish pink. 
Blooming starts in early Spring. $1.00. 
Dr. Huey. Single blossoms so deep and velvety that 
they seem almost black. A late Spring bloomer in 
blossom over a long period. 85c. 
Dr. J. H. Nicolas. Plant Patent 457. One of the few 
really everblooming climbers. Immediately after the 
first of the large rose pink flowers fade, new shoots 
appear and continue the blooming again and again 
through the Summer and Fall. Three or four richly 
fragrant blossoms are borne on the long, strong stems. 
The plant is hardy, grows to 8 feet and is very resist - 
ant to Rose ills. 50 petals. $1.50. 
Dr. W. Van Fleet. Large, shell-pink flowers on long 
stems. Waxy foliage and very vigorous growth. A 
late Spring bloomer. 85c. 
Flash. Plant Patent 396. The most intense flashing 
color of any Climber we know. Vivid orange-scarlet 
on the inside and the outside yellow suffused with 
scarlet. It is a free bloomer and hardy. Not a 
rampant grower. $1.00. 
Golden Climber. Plant Patent 25. The large golden 
yellow blossoms maintain their color until they fall 
and are of beautiful form. It is best to grow it in full 
sunlight. A vigorous grower with beautiful thorns, 
foliage, and blossoms. $1.00. 
Kitty Kininmonth. A delightful Australian variety 
that blooms over a long period. The large, broad, 
bright pink blossoms with golden stamens are 
supremely lovely. Recurrent. $1.25. 
Mme. Gregoire Staechelin (Spanish Beauty). The 
cupped blossoms are flesh-pink flushed with crimson 
and the petals are attractively curled. Not. par- 
ticularly hardy but greatly loved. 85c. 
Mary Wallace. The long buds that come out in the 
Spring are great for cutting. Large, semi-double 
flowers of a bright rose-pink on long stems. A very 
strong grower which can be trained as a climber or 
allowed to develop as an arching self-supporting 
shrub. 85c. 
New Dawn. Plant Patent 1. Everblooming form of 
Dr. W. Van Fleet. The most nearly everblooming of 
all the climbing Roses. Its large, soft pink flowers 
appear almost continuously during the Spring, Sum- 
mer and Fall. Large, vigorous growth. Like all 
everblooming varieties the plants should be well fed 
for best results. $1.25. 
Paul’s Lemon Pillar. The large white or nearly- 
white blossoms are so perfect that they would do 
justice to any Hybrid Tea. They are borne abun- 
dantly but naturally not as profusely as on the older 
cluster-type climbers. Strong pillar type growth. 
$1.25. 
Paul’s Scarlet Climber. All who see its numerous, 
well-formed, glistening scarlet flowers are imme- 
diately thrilled by it. A strong, hardy, medium sized, 
upright grower. Mid-Spring. 85c. 
Scorcher. The stunning, fragrant flowers of gorgeous 
scarlet are semi-double and open to about 4 inches. 
Blossoms over a long period in the Summer as well as 
in the Spring. Pillar type; moderate growth. Bloom- 
ing starts in early Spring. $1.00. 
Silver Moon. In the late Spring beautiful cream- 
colored buds on long stems open to semi-double 
flowers about 4 inches across. They are pure white 
enhanced with golden yellow stamens. One of the 
most vigorous of all Climbers. Mid-Spring bloomer. 
85c.
