imbing Roses 
One of the very first signs of returning spring is the familiar and lovely old Belle of Portugal, in a solid mass of 
silvery, pale pink blossoms stretched across roof tops, along fences or on arbors, and the magnificent color splash of 
the “red’s red’’ Paul’s Scarlet. They certainly earn their keep, even with their one-time bloom. The Hybrid Tea 
climbers produce long-stemmed cut flowers and surely invite pleasing comment and oh’s and ah’s when they are in 
bloom. The Great Gardener just won't let us have everything, and because some of the Hybrid Tea climbers are not 
hardy, you in the colder areas with your wealth of winter beauty cannot enjoy the thrill of all these big climbing roses 
in full bloom with hundreds of blooms looking down at you. 
Climbing ALOHA 
(Pat. 948) 
An excellent new climber with gorgeous 
big, double, fragrant flowers that would be 
an achievement for a Hybrid Tea. Buds 
are deep coral-pink, opening to perfectly 
formed blooms of rich rose-pink with a 
silvery tone on the inside of the petals. 
Long-stemmed clusters, with the main bud 
opening first, followed by the side buds. 
Dark, leathery foliage. Makes a vigorous, 
8 to 10-foot pillar and blooms continuously.
