Clim bing Roses 
Climbing Roses require no pruning in the spring beyond cutting out of 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 some but not all old flowering wood will encourage a vigorous growth, 
which will give an abundance of flowers the following season. 
We offer on this and following page a selection of the most modern Hardy Climbing and Pillar 
Roses. 
$15.00 
color of 
Blaze Each $1.50, Three $4.90, Doz. 
Hardy everblooming climbing Rose which inherits the blazing 
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 cilmbing variety, which will grow to considerable height. 
Dr. J. H. Nicolas (Plant Patent No. 457) 
Each $2.00, Three $5.25, Doz. $21.00 
Gardeners are delighted with the wealth of fragrant blooms, the size of 
the large, double flowers so like the finest Hybrid Tea Roses, and most 
of all with the everblooming performance of this Rose. Immediately 
after first flowers fade, new shoots appear. A galaxy of bloom repeats 
again and again, all summer and fall. Fully double, entrancing deep 
rose-pink flowers, unbelievably large, 5 to 6 inches across, 50 fine 
textured petals. Three or four perfect blooms to each long, strong 
stem. Their fragrance is rich, lovely and erduring. 
Dream Girl 
(Plant Patent No. 643) _ 
Each $2.50, Three $6.69, Doz. $26.40 
The new everblooming Hardy Climber and Pillar Rose. This variety 
fills a long-felt need for a real coral-pink, full-petaled, hardy climb- 
ing Rose. Another most appealing quality is its pleasant spicy and 
penetrating fragrance. The blooms last for days after cutting. Be- 
ginning in June when older climbers like Mary Wallace, Dr. W. Van 
Fleet and others in this class finish blooming, Dream Girl produces 
successive crops of flowers throughout the summer, ending with a 
gorgeous display in late fall. It has a neat, compact habit which 
allows for ecsy training on a 6- to 8-foot trellis or arbor; also does 
well when trained as a “‘pillar’’ Rose. 
Paul’s Scarlet 
Gold Rush 
A vigorous climber, producing masses of handsome yellow flowers; has 
Each $1.75, Three $4.65, Doz. $18.60 
nice foliage and unlike most hardy climbers, it will produce flowers on 
its new growth for the season. We predict a great future for it. So far 
it has proven to be the best and hardiest of the yellow climbing Roses. 
Inspiration (Patent Rights Reserved) 
King Midas 
[96] 
Each $2.50, Three $6.60, Doz. $26.40 
Inspiration is an appropriate companion Rose for the new Dream 
Girl, with similar growth habit. It is not too rampant or tall grow- 
ing and so has many uses on trellises, arbors, and pillars of medium 
size and height. Successive crops follow from June on through Octo- 
ber and show the scme sparkling pink tones as found in that fine 
old Hybrid Tea, Pink Radiance, and the once-blooming Mary Wal- 
lace Climber. It is very hardy, reliable and free-blooming in all 
sections, same as Dream Girl Climber. 
(Plant Patent No. 586) 3 ; 
Each $2.00, Three $5.25, Doz. $21.90 
Long canes, 8 to 10 feet, will bring a blaze of golden glory to pillar, 
porch, pergola, trellis, fence or brighten a corner of the yard, house or 
garage. Blooms are large, 4 to 5 inches, in clusters on medium long 
stems, opening from a deep gold to a clear, unfading yellow. This va- 
riety is very prolific and continues blooming after other Climbers have 
ended. It is fast growing and establishes itself quickly and throws out 
long, stout, blooming wood from basal shoots.
