dainty, almost evergreen, 
ing, with 
foliage.

they have proved to be as hardy as any of our Roses, flowering 
all summer, and reaching the height of their glory in the fall.

Everblooming Semi-Climbing or Pillar Roses 
These Roses are $1.25 each, except where otherwise noted, less quantity discount on page 11 
HESE fine old introductions of Peter Lambert, Captain 
Thomas, and The Rev. J. H. Pemberton have long been a 
specialty with us. When Rose-lovers once get to know them, 
they admire and love them for their repeat-blooming qualities 
and their strong shrubby habit of growth. They have a long 
blooming period during June and July, and then again through- 
out the summer and fall seasons. Thrive almost anywhere and 
BELINDA. Large trusses of soft pink blooms. 
The individual truss is formed exactly like the 
perennial phlox and is the only Rose we know 
showing this novel characteristic. Try at least 
one for a real Rose thrill. Upright, with beauti- 
ful foliage. Suitable for a hedge, bedding, or 
short pillar; 4 to 6 feet. $2.00 each. 
BISHOP DARLINGTON. (Capt. Thomas, 
1912.) Pink. Large, semi-double flowers of 
lovely flesh-pink suffused with yellow at base 
of petals. Vigorous growth; good foliage; a 
profuse and continuous bloomer.

1924.) Orange-yellow buds and medium-sized 
single flowers of clear canary-yellow. Highly 
recommended. 
CLYTEMNESTRA. (J. H. Pemberton, 1915.) 
Pink. Coppery buds; small, ruffled deep 
pink flowers shading to salmon. 
CORNELIA. H. Musk. (J. H. Pemberton, 
1925.) Pink. Very double flowers, about 3 
inches across, of strawberry-pink, flushed 
yellow, borne in abundant, flat sprays. Vig-

pink, semi-double flowers 2 to 214 inches

and surplus wood. 
PENELOPE. (J. H. Pemberton, 1942.) Blush. 
A perpetual-flowering cluster Rose of shrub 
habit. The flowers are shell-pmk, but turn 
pure white shading to Jemon around centers 
as they age. This gives the effect of having 
both pink and white blossoms on one plant.

pink. Borne in profuse, erect clusters. Vigor- 
ous. Pillar. 
“STARTED 
ROSES”’ 
in Pots for Local Sales and 
Display in Late May 
and June 
Due to many conditions be- 
yond our control, there will be 
no potted Roses, except for 
local cash-and-carry sales at 
the Nursery in East Rutherford. 
The strong, special wooden 
crates they require for packing 
are not available for Railway 
Express delivery. 
Visit the Nursery to see the 
Roses growing and blooming in 
large pots for late transplant- 
ing. The hundreds of varieties 
we grow may be viewed in a 
comparatively smali area in- 
stead of walking through miles 
of dusty nursery rows. All 
Roses now potted were in the 
Nursery for two years. 
PRICES OF STARTED ROSES: 
All are in 6-in. Cley Pots. 
Add 25 cts. to the each price. 
e.g., a $1.00 dormant Rose is 
$1.25 potted.

require very little care. Their heights range from 5 to 8 feet and 
are, therefore, valuable for pillars, fences or as strong shrubs 
without support provided they are kept pruned lightly and 
Pruning: Retain old wood and new wood. Cut out only dead 
Planting Distance: 3 to 4 feet apart. 
REICHSPRASIDENT VON HINDENBURG. 
(P. Lambert, 1933.) A large, brilliant pmk 
flower with an overcast of salmon. Intensely 
fragrant. Used as a low pillar, it will produce 
flowers from late spring until frost. Too bad 
this wonderful Rose was introduced with such 
a cumbersome name. We suggest you change 
its name after seeing it bloom. $1.50 each. 
VANITY. (J. H. Pemberton, 1920.) Large, 
single, fragrant rose-pink flowers. 

SEMI-CLIMBING ROSES. Penelope is one of the best
