Climbing Keres 
CLG. TEXAS CENTENNIAL 
At last this fine bush rose has produced 
a successful climbing sport. As we told 
you with Hoover, it is very rampant. But 
if you have the space for it, you will 
certainly delight in its strength and viril- 
ity and in the profusion of brilliant

A brilliantly toned rose pink. Large fra- 
grant blooms. We have enjoyed it here 
at the Nursery for many years. Excellent 
as a cut flower. 
IMPROVED PAUL’S SCARLET 
The “improved” part means that this type 
of Paul's Scarlet will flower several times 
during the rose season. A cluster, with 
short stems, it is a glorious sight on a 
fence. Vivid scarlet, shaded bright crim- 
son. For a spectacular blaze of color in 
the spring, we recommend this improved 
variety of an old favorite. 
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 yellow 
single blooms come in great clusters, 
opening slowly so that it is seldom out of 
bloom. The long golden stamens are at- 
tractive 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.

A stunning color combination of orange

SPANISH BEAUTY (Mme. Gregoire 
Staechelin) 
For sheer exquisite beauty of color and 
form, this pink rose is unexcelled. Vig- 
orous in growth, producing many large 
delicate pink blooms, shaded carmine, 
which keep opening all during the spring 
months. Long pointed buds, almost crim- 
son, opening to pearl pink irridescent 
blooms with curled petals.
