GIANT SCARLET CLIMBER 
ROSA XANTHINA HYBRID by HORVATH 
Color of Flower: Brilliant scarlet-red of the same shade as Crimson Glory. The flowers are 
perfectly formed, very slow in opening and when fully open, 4 to 5 inches across. The flowers, 
although large, are perfectly shaped and just as handsome as those of a Hybrid Tea Rose. 
Flowers are produced abundantly on spur branches 12 to 18 inches long, which are stiff, 
holding the flowers in perfect position. Flowers have from 55 to 60 petals, do not discolor 
when fully open. Without any question of doubt, the finest scarlet Climbing Rose yet intro- 
duced. Horvath claims this to be his finest creation. 
Foliage: Rich bottle-green, quite abundant. No mildew or black-spot in our test garden 
for three years. 
Hardiness: Can be successfully grown with protection in colder regions. 
Size of Plant: Ultimate height about 8 to 10 feet. Canes are very plentiful, not overly 
thorny.

Gentlemen: 
In making a report on the planting of 50 Thor, 
Horvath Roses, the Riverview Garden Club wishes 
me to express their appreciation of its excellent 
behavior. The Roses have been satisfactory in 
every respect. The plants are sturdy and are 
vigorous growers with long stems, having clusters 
of from three to seven flowers on each stem, 
making a gorgeous display of vivid color. 
That meets all the requirements for roadside and 
parkway planting and we are happy to recom- 
mend their use and your splendid service in sup- 
plying them.
