| Gs 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 
contorm 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 w'll encourage a vigorous growth, which will give an abun- 
dance of flowers the following season. 
We offer on this and following page a selection of the most modern Hardy Climb- 
} 4 ing and Pillar Roses. 
Blaze Each $1.50, Three $3.90, Doz. $15.60 
Hardy everblooming climbing Rose which inher'ts the blazing color of Paul’s 
Scarlet Climber and the everbloom ng hab't of Gruss an Tepl'tz, thus comb:ning 
the most attractive features of both its parents. It is a very vigorous climbing 
variety, which will grow to considerable height. 
Dream Girl (See page 112) 
Dr. J. H. Nicolas (Piant Patent No. 457) Each $2.00, Three $5.25, Doz. $21.06 
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 shcots appear. A galaxy of blooms repects again and again, all summer and 
fall. Fully double, entrancing deep rose-pink flcwers, 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 enduring. | 
Gold Rush Each $1.75, Three $4.65, Doz. $18.60 
A vigorous climber, producing masses of handsome yellow flowers; has 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 (See page 112) | 
King Midas (Plant Patent No. 586) Each $2.00, Three $5.25, Doz. $21.00 
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 variety is very prolific and continues bloom- 
ing after other Climbers have ended. It is fast growing and establishes itself quick- 
ly and throws out long, stout, blooming wood from basal shoots. 
New Dawn Each $1.50, Three $3.90, Doz. $15.60 
(Everblooming Dr. W. Van Fleet.) Identical in every way with its parent in size 
and formation of its flowers and lovely soft pink color, but blooms continuously 
throughout the summer and fall.

This is one of the favorites. The flowers are scarlet-red, semi-double and freely 
produced in clusters of from three to ten flowers each on much-branched canes. 
It is a strong grower and very hardy; canes are flexible and easily tied to a fence, 
pergola or post. The plants we offer are husky and will quickly and readily de- 
develop into beautiful specimens, producing brilliant masses of bloom.
