G limbing “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 en- 
courage 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. 
Blaze Each $1.50, Three $4.00, Doz. $15.00

Scarlet Climber and the everblooming habit of Gruss an Teplitz, thus com- 
bining the most attractive features of both its parents. It is a very vigorous 
climbing variety, which will grow to considerable height.
