« (Himbing ROSES «+ 
The Climbing Roses offered here are the best of their class. These 
newer Climbers have disease-resistant foliage, large blooms, and 
long stems suitable for cutting. A carefully trained plant is a real 
spectacle when in full bloom. Do not prune more than enough to 
keep the plant within bounds. Prune soon after the big June bloom. 
AMERICAN BEAUTY, CLIMBING. Lots of large, red blooms come 
out in early Spring on a strong, hardy, vigorous Climber. In bright 
sunshine the red turns to a deep pink. The flowers are intensely fra- 
grant. $1.50 each; 3 for $4.00. 
AMERICAN PILLAR. A very vigorous Climber with great clusters of 
medium-sized pink flowers having white centers and tufts of yellow 
stamens. A late bloomer. Plan on a lot of room for it. $1.50 each; 
3 for $4.00. 
BLAZE. Great clusters of scarlet bloom. Showy and hardy. Very 
popular. Usually gives recurring bloom throughout the season. Often 
called the everblooming Paul’s Scarlet Climber. $1.50 each; 3 for $4.00.

blooms of medium size. It may also be used as a climber for a trellis

3 for $4.00. 
CRIMSON GLORY, CLIMBING. The rich deep crimson color of the 
Hybrid Tea is transferred to the Climber. It does not bloom as steadily 
as the Hybrid Tea but it is very worthwhile. In this climate it should 
be protected. Plant Pat. 736. $2.50 each; 3 for $6.60.

fragrance. Plant Pat. 643. $2.25 each; 3 for $6.00.

period. Dull musk fragrance. $1.50 each; 3 for $4.00.

Tea exhibition form are produced on long, strong stems on a good ro- 
bust, healthy Climber. Fragrant. $2.00 each; 3 for $5.25.

erately vigorous. Deserves a little Winter protection such as

GOLDILOCKS, CLIMBING. We feel that this is a good everblooming 
yellow Climber. It recurs several times a season and grows 6 to 10 feet 
tall. We think it is fairly hardy. The blossoms are real yellow, double

respect. The large, very double blossoms are freely produced on a 
strong-growing plant. Highly fragrant. $1.75 each; 3 for $4.75. 
INSPIRATION. A recurrent-blooming Climber that is fairly hardy in 
this climate. Some Winters it will freeze down to the ground, but a 
covering of burlap or wrapping paper around its branches usually 
protects it sufficiently so that the branches will stay green. The shiny, 
two-tone pink blossoms, of Hybrid Tea size, come on long stems. 
$2.00 each; 3 for $5.25. 
KITTY KININMONTH. A delightful Australian variety that blooms 
over a long period. The large, broad, bright pink flowers with golden 
stamens are supremely lovely. Recurrent. $1.75 each; 3 for $4.75. 
MARY WALLACE. The long buds that come out in the Spring are 
great for cutting. Large, semi-double flowers of a lovely, soft rose-pink 
on long stems. A very strong grower which can be trained as a Climber 
or allowed to develop as an arching self-supporting shrub. Light fra- 
grance. $1.50 each; 3 for $4.00. 
MERMAID. The charming, perfect, single blooms of light yellow occur 
throughout the growing season. Each simple, artistic flower is per- 
fectly symmetrical, with 5 large petals deepening in color toward the 
center and accented by a showy cluster of golden stamens. Should 
have some Winter protection. $1.65 each; 3 for $4.35. 
NEW DAWN. The everblooming Dr. W. Van Fleet. Light pink flowers 
in Spring and almost continuously through the Summer. The nearest 
to being “‘everblooming”’ of all hardy Climbers. $1.65 each; 3 for $4.35.

RITZ. A showy red, everblooming Climbing Rose. It is more ever- 
blooming than any other red. The blossoms are of the Floribunda type 
—numerous, in clusters, quite continuous and of medium size. The 
color is a deep, velvety red in cooler weather and a showy fiery red 
during the Summer. Individual blooms in the clusters are about 3 
inches across and generally have 11 petals. The growth is not rampant 
but is strong, healthy and attains about 8 to 10 feet. This Climber is 
very hardy, one of its ancestors being the hardy Setigera (Prairie 
Rose). It was hybridized by the late M. H. Horvath and is the most 
everblooming of all that he originated. Plant Pat. Pending. $3.00 
each; 3 for $7.95. Illustrated on page 3.

Growth is robust and healthy. Plant Pat. 387. $2.00 each; 3 for $5.25.

gorgeous, deep red blooms in June, continuing slightly into July. The

edge. Rich damask fragrance. $2.00 each; 3 for $5.25.
