LARGE-FLOWERED HARDY CLIMBING ROSES, continued 
INSPIRATION. Cl. 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-blooming Mary Wallace climber. It is very 
hardy, reliable and free-blooming in all sections, same as Dream Girl climber.
