PERPETUAL FLOWERING DOORYARD ROSE 
A ROSA SETIGERA HYBRID by HORVATH 
THE ROSE THAT NEVER FAILS! 
Color of Flowers: Peach-blossom-pink with silvery reflexed, sharply re- 
curving imbricated petals, center showing a lovely orange undertone. Flowers 
in panicles. Persistent grower and bloomer. Flowering period starting in 
June, lasting until frost; starts blooming about two weeks later than 
Hybrid Tea Roses, but is never without flowers the entire summer and fall. 
Flowers excellent for cutting and decorative work, are fully double, hav- 
ing from 50 to 60 petals, and are delightfully fragrant, lasting a week or 
ten days in water when cut. 
Foliage: Bottle-green, rich and clean. Not troubled with black spot, mil- 
dew or other Rose maladies. 
Hardiness: Hardy without protection in the Temperate Zone. Can be 
successully grown with little protection in the colder regions where growing 
Roses heretofore has not been possible or exceedingly difficult. 
Use and Size of Plant: Ultimate height about 2 feet, spreading 5 to 6 
feet or more if permitted. It is a decumbent, spreading mat-like plant, mak- 
ing it pre-eminently fit for ground covering, hiding rocky and ugly spots, or 
as edging to Rose beds as well as planting in solid beds or covering slopes. 
Single specimens are very effective in the flower border or low shrub plant- 
ings. 
Each $2.00, Three $5.25, Doz. $21.00 
Paul’s Scarlet 
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 flow- 
ering, is beneficial. Cutting away at that time some but not all old 
flowering wood will encourage a vigorous growth, which will give an 
abundance of flowers the following season. 
Dream Girl, Inspiration and Prosperity are all three Perpetual Flowering 
varieties, blooming all summer and fall. 
Blaze Each $1.50, Three $3.90, Doz. $15.69 
Hardy everblooming climbing Rose which inherits the blazing color of 
Paul’s Scarlet Climber and the everblooming habit of Gruss a Tepitz, 
thus combining the most attractive features of both its parents. It is a 
very vigorous climbing variety, which will grow to considerable height. 
Dream Girl (Plant Patent No. 643) 
Each $2.25, Three $6.00, Doz. $24.00 
The new everblooming Hardy Climber and Pillar Rose. This variety 
fills a long-felt need for a reai coral-pink, full-petaled, hardy climb- 
ing Rose. Another most appealing quality is its pleasant spicy and 
penetrating fragrance. The blooms last for days after cutting. Be- 
ginning in June when older climbers like Mary Wallace, Dr. W. Van 
Fleet and others in this class finish blooming, Dream Girl produces 
successive crops of flowers throughout the summer, ending with a 
gorgeous display in late fall. It has a neat, compact habit which 
allows for easy training on a 6- to 8-foot trellis or arbor; also does 
well when trained as a ‘‘pillar’’ Rose. 
Dr. J. H. Nicolas (Plant Patent No. 457) 
Each $2.00, Three $5.25, Doz. $21.00 
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 the first flowers fade, new shoots appear. A galaxy of bloom 
repeats again and again, all summer and fall. Fully double, entrancing 
deep rose-pink flowers, 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 Each $2.25, Three $6.00, Doz. $24.00 
Inspiration is an appropriate companion Rose for the new Dream 
Girl, with similar growth habit. It is not too rampant or tall growing 
and so has many uses on trellises, arbors, and pillars, of medium size 
and habit. Successive crops follow from June on through October and 
show the same sparkling 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. 
King Midas (Plant Patent No. 586) 
Each $2.00, Three $5.25, Doz. $21.00 
Long canes, 8 to 10 feet, will ring 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 va- 
riety is very prolific and continues blooming after other Climbers have 
ended. It is fast growing and establishes itself quickly and throws out 
long, stout, blooming wood from basa! shoots. 
New Dawn Each $1.50, Three $3.90, Doz. $15.60 
(Everblooming Dr. W. Van Fleet.) Identical in every way with its par- 
ent in size and formation of its flowers, and lovely soft pink color, but 
blooms continuously throughout the summer and fall. 
Climbing Peace (Plant Pat. No. 932) 
Each $2.00, Three $5.25, Doz. $21.00 
Blooms identical with those on bush Peace Rose come on long, fast- 
growing plant canes. For the North, we advise you to give it winter 
protection. 
Paul’s Scarlet Each $1.50, Three $3.90, Doz. $15.60 
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 develop into beautiful 
specimens, producing brilliant masses of bloom. 
Prosperity Each $2.00, Three $5.25, Doz. $21.00 
A_ lovely white climber which flowers throughout the summer and 
autumn. It is the best of the white perpetual flowering climbing Roses. 
The flowers are about two inches in diameter and occur in clusters 
of from 5 to 10 or more. Its foliage is rich dark green. This variety 
lends itself well to growing on fence or pillar and makes a stunning 
contrast if planted along with a red variety. 
Silver Moon Each $1.50, Three $3.90, Doz. $15.60 
Beautiful semi-double flowers, 4 inches and over in diameter, pure 
white in color; petals of great substance, beautifully cupped, forming 
a Clematis-like flower. The large bunch of yellow stamens in the center 
adds to its attractiveness. 
Crailing “Rose 
Wichuraiana (Memorial Rose) Each $1.25, Three $3.15, Doz. $12.50 
Fragrant, single, pure white flowers with yellow stamens followed in 
the fall by bright red hips or berries. It has dense evergreen foliage.
