Now you can have the big double blooms 
of the hybrid teas covering your walls and 
fences. Blooms are the same as the bush 
form. : 
Remember Climbing Roses cannot sup- 
port themselves and need to be tied up to 
the trellis, fence, or other support. When 
planting around a house, keep the plants 
out 3 ft. from the foundation. The ground 
is too dry any closer than that. Trim to 
12 in. from the ground when first planted. 
Usually takes about 3 yrs. to get a climber 
well established. They need plenty of 
water, more than bush roses. 
Trim out some of the oldest canes each 
year just after the blooming season. Re- 
member—Climbing tea roses probably will 
not be hardy north of Missouri; the other 
climbers are.

liage that remains green all

All Henry Field Roses are Hardy, Healthy, Beautiful 
There is such a wide variation in the quality of roses, and in the 
sizes and grades, and in the prices different nurseries ask for their 
roses, that it is confusing. 
So we want to tell you this: First, all Henry Field’s roses are 
two-year-old, field-grown plants. 
No other kind is shipped. Sec- 
ond, they are true to name, healthy, heavy, and hardy. They are 
absolutely free of disease and fungus—vwe are one of the very few 
nurseries using germicidal lamps in our rose storage room. 
There are no better roses than Henry Field’s. You can pay more 
for roses, but they will not be any better. Also, we advise you to 
be careful about buying exceptionally cheap roses. They usually 
are low-grade culls, in very small sizes. When you get them you 
will be disappointed, and a lot of them probably will never live 
and grow for you.
