Climbing Roses 
Climbing Roses require no pruning in the spring beyond cutting out 
ot very old or dead wood, and the shortening of the laterals and long 
canes to make the growth conform to the space to be covered; but a 
severe pruning in July, directly after they have finished flowering, is 
beneficial. Cutting away at that time all old flowering wood will 
encourage a vigorous growth, which will give an abundance of flowers 
the following season. 
We offer on this page a selection of the most modern Hardy Climb- 
ing and Rambler Roses. 
Blaze (Plant Patent No. 10) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
Hardy everblooming climbing Rose which inherits the blazing color 
of Paul’s Scarlet Climber and the everblooming habit of Gruss an 
Teplitz, thus combining the most attractive features of both its 
parents. It is a very vigorous climbing variety which will grow 
to considerable height. 
Cecile Brunner Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
This is the climbing form of the ‘Sweetheart Rose.’’ Covered in season 
with hundreds of graceful little buds and flowers, exceptionally fine for 
covering small fences or trellises. Needs protection in the North but 
well worth the extra trouble. 
Easlea’s Golden Rambler Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
(U. S. Plant Patent No. 114.) A new, outstanding climbing Rose from 
England, producing its comparatively large, double, rich golden flowers 
in large trusses. An additional quality is a delicious fragrance. Gold 
Medal, Royal Horticultural Society, July, 1932. Awarded the Cory Cup 
as the best new seedling climber or rambler Rose of British origin 
introduced in 1932. 
Edna Thomas Each $1.25, Doz. $12.50 
j A fine pink climber. The flowers are a lively pink and of Hybrid Tea 
i Rose size. In fact, they closely resemble H. T. Rose Marie. Throughout 
the summer it produces blooms of fine size and quality. In June at 
Rose time it stands out as one of the best pinks.

has large, disease-resistant foliage. At the tips, the long, pointed buds 
are crimson at first as the petals divide, then the firm outer petals 
show splashes of carmine as the flower opens with an iridescent pearl- 
pink inside. Very fragrant. 
New Dawn _ (U. S. Plant Patent No. 1) Each $1.50, Doz. $15.00 
(Everblooming Dr. W. Van Fleet). Identical in every way with its parent 
in size and formation of its flowers and lovely soft pink color, but blooms 
continuously throughout the summer and fall.
