INDIAN SUMMER 
The name suggests the color combination 
—copper, old rose, blush pink with some 
old gold. As nearly ‘'everblooming”’ as a 
rose can be. Clean and shining foliage. 
Both in Oakland and in the San Joaquin 
Valley, we have found this to be one of 
the most satisfactory climbing roses.

MERMAID 
Here is a rose that is really “different” 
Mermaid is an evergreen plant, with 
very vigorous growth. Soft sulphur yel- 
low single blooms come in great clusters, 
opening slowly so that it is seldom out 
of bloom. The long golden stamens are 
attractive after the petals have fallen. An 
excellent bank cover. We like it as a 
weeping standard. Prune lightly or not 
at all, Disease resistant. 
MRS. PAUL J. HOWARD 
Fine rich crimson blooms, sweetly fra- 
grant, make this an especially beautiful 
climbing rose. The foliage is large, dark 
bronzy and leathery. The long stems 
make this good for cutting.
