LARGE-FLOWERED HARDY CLIMBING ROSES, continued 
DR. HUEY. LC. (Thomas, 1914.) Red. A 
spectacular Climber yielding an abundance of 
large, ruffled, maroon-red flowers both singly 
on long stems and in tremendous clusters. 
There ts no color in the Rose kingdom to 
match this deep, solid, velvety maroon. MS. 
$2.00 each; 3 for $5.40. 
DR. W. VAN FLEET. LC. (Van Fleet, 1910.) 
Pink. Abundant long-stemmed, beautifully 
formed flowers of a soft pale shade of flesh-pink, 
the equal of a fine Hybrid Tea. Same growth 
habit and color as New Dawn, which is “‘ever- 
blooming”? and taking the place of Dr. Van 
Fleet. MS. $1.50 each; 3 for $4.00. 
DREAM GIRL. (M. R. Jacobus.) Pat. 643. 
Pink. The comparatively new Everblooming 
Hardy Climbing and Pillar Rose. The outside 
petals of the opening buds are very light apple- 
blossom-pink. It frequently takes several 
days for the full petaled buds to open and show 
the salmon-pink inside petals, which are over- 
laid with a glorious sheen of fresh apricot. The 
color tones actually deepen until the blooms 
fully open in sunlight. One of the most ap- 
pealing qualities of Dream Girl is the pleasing 
spicy unforgettable fragrance; a few cut blooms 
will scent the whole room. Plants established 
for a year or more will produce a fine crop of 
flowers in early June followed by a succession 
of blooms throughout the summer, ending with 
a glorious display im early fall. Please do not 
expect full-sized blooms of typical color the 
first year or season after planting (this holds 
true with practically all Climbmg Roses.) 
The plant resents being sprayed or dusted, 
unless you may be concerned about temporary 
aphis attacks which are not usually serious. 
Use it on trellises, arbors, posts and pillars, for 
covering fences, stone walls, tree stumps and 
everywhere Climbing Roses of moderate 
growth are so readily adaptable. $2.25 each; 
3 for $6.00. 
ELEGANCE. LC. (Brownell, 1938.) Yellow. 
Flowers are spectrum-yellow in center, shading 
to a pale yellow on the outer petals, deepening 
in color as they open, carried on stiff stems 
1 to 3 feet Jong. Huge exhibition flowers, 
Hybrid Tea in form. MS. $2.00 each; 3 for 
$5.40. 
GOLDEN CLIMBER (MRS. ARTHUR CUR- 
TisS JAMES). LC. (The Brownells, 1933.) 
Yellow. A strong climbing plant which does 
not bloom until it is thoroughly established 
for two or more years, when it produces 
many perfectly formed, golden yellow flowers 
of Hybrid Tea quality and fragrance, on 144 
to 2-foot stems. MS. $2.00 each; 3 for $5.40. 
GOLDEN GLOW. LC. (The Brownells, 1937.) 
Pat. 263. The pure spectrum-yellow Hybrid- 
Tea-like flowers are 3% to 5 inches in diameter, 
emitting a tea fragrance. Perfectly hardy. 
We consider it about the best all-round yellow 
Climber. MS. $2.00 each; 3 for $5.40. 
INSPIRATION. CI. Introduced by Bobbink 
& Atkins in 1946 for M. R. Jacobus, hybridizer. 
Inspiration Is an appropriate companion Rose 
for our new Dream Girl, with similar growth 
habit. Successive crops follow from June on 
through October and show the same sparkling 
pink tones as found in that fine old Hybrid 
Tea, Pink Radiance and the once-bloommg 
Mary Wallace climber. It is very hardy, re- 
liable and free-blooming in all sections, same 
as Dream Girl climber. $2.25 each; 3 for $6.00. 
MARY WALLACE. LC. (Van Fleet, 1924.) 
Pink. Very strong growth. Large, bright pink 
flowers with a Iuminous sheen. MS. $1.50 
each; 3 for $4.00. 
MERCEDES GALLART. LC. (Munne, 1932.) 
Red. Everblooming. The first crop in June 
is cerise-red changing to magenta, but in mid- 
summer and autumn the blooms are clear 
bright crimson, intensely fragrant. Hardy. 
E. $2.00 each; 3 for $5.40. 
MERMAID. LC. (W. Paul, 1918.) Unspeak- 
ably beautiful single flowers of great size, pure 
Ivory-white, with cream and lemon center and 
an immense cluster of stamens. Blooms 
steadily throughout the season, producing 
clusters of buds on the tips of the new growth. 
Foliage glistening, almost evergreen. Needs 
winter protection in the North. Do not prune 
this Rose—let it grow. Under favorable con- 
ditions it climbs, but is best as a rambling 
shrub. $2.00 each; 3 for $5.40. 
MME. GREGOIRE STAECHELIN. LC. (P. 
Dot, 1927.) Pink. Also called ‘Spanish 
Beauty.” Huge, fragrant, delicate pink flowers, 
stained crimson. Blooms very early. E. $2.00 
each; 3 for $5.40. 
MRS. WHITMAN CROSS. LC. (Cross and 
Hansen; introduced by Bobbink & Atkins.) 
The unusual vivid orange colors, with an 
overlaid pinkish sheen, almost striped at times, 
are beautiful to behold. Reblooms in late 
summer and fall. The customers’ natural en- 
thusitasm for this Rose of unusual coloring 
has increased each year since we introduced 
it in 1943. It really is a beauty! MS. $2.00 
each; 3 for $5.40. 
NEW DAWN. LC. (Somerset Rose Nursery, 
1930.) Apple-blossom-pink. Everblooming. 
The first hardy everblooming Climber. It ts a 
sport of the well-known Dr. W. Van Fleet. 
New Dawn ts destined to take its place because 
of strong everblooming characteristics and 
equally vigorous and healthy growth habit. 
L. $1.50 each; 3 for $4.00. 
ORANGE EVERGLOW. LC. (The Brownells, 
1942.) Pat. 505. Copper-yellow blooms. The 
large flowers are about 3 inches across when 
plant is established. Foliage is glossy and al- 
most evergreen. MS. $2.00 each; 3 for $5.40. 
PAUL’S LEMON PILLAR. CHT. (Paul & 
Son, 1915.) Pale lemon buds and faint sul- 
phur-yellow flowers. Double, well formed, and 
fragrant. Strong growth. MS. $2.00 each; 
3 for $5.40. 
PAUL’S SCARLET CLIMBER. LC. (W. 
Paul, 1916.) Intensely red flowers, borne in 
loose clusters. Best used as a pillar because of 
its restricted height. Unquestionably hardy 
and reliable. MS. $1.50 each; 3 for $4.00. 
SILVER MOON. LC. (Van Fleet, 1910.) White. 
Handsome foliage and big, saucer-shaped, 
moon-white flowers with brilliant yellow cen- 
ters. MS. $1.50 each; 3 for $4.00. 
TEMPTATION. LC. (M. R. Jacobus.) Ever- 
blooming. The NEW rose-red Climber tn- 
troduced by Bobbink & Atkins in 1950. Like 
its predecessors, Dream Girl and Inspiration, 
it is very hardy and resents spraying or dusting. 
It grows vigorously but not too rampant. The 
blooms, borne both on single stems and in 
clusters, are very full petaled and long lasting 
both in and out-of-doors. When it Is estab- 
lished for a year or two, the strong reblooming 
characteristics and distinctive new carmine- 
rose-pink color tones will please the lover of 
Climbing Roses. It is in the fall of the year, 
when this remarkable new Rose proves its 
worth and produces those luscious long- 
stemmed, vivid red blooms that everyone 
loves. As with Dream Girl and others in this 
class, we ask you not to expect full-sized blooms 
of typical color the first June after planting. 
$2.25 each; 3 for $6.00. 
WHITE DAWN. LC. (Longley.) New Everbloom- 
ing White. Produces hundreds of pure white, 
double blooms resembling gardenias, and after 
the plant is well established it will be ever- 
blooming. Do not, however, expect plentiful, 
repeated bloom the first year after planting. 
Developed from a cross of New Dawn and Lily 
Pons. $2 each; 3 for $5.40. 
ZEPHIRINE DROUHIN. Bourbon. (Bizot, 
1868.) Vivid pink, well-filled flowers of fine 
shape, exquisitely perfumed. Blooms freely in 
spring and sparingly in fall. E. $2.00 each; 
3 for $5.40.
