The ivory-white color, shading to- ward the center to silvery rose, gives an effect that is indescrib- ably beautiful. Climbing Clotilde is thoroughly hardy every- where and needs no petting.

The Wonderful Blue Rose Veilchenhlau, or Violet-Blue. The Greatest Xovelty in Roses Ever Introduced. The new, unique and wonderful Blue Rose has jumped into greater popularity than any Rose introduced in late years, and the demand for it last year was so great that it was almost im- possible to meet it. But we did so and have propagated a mag- nificent stock for this season. It is one of the most rampant growers we have ever seen, covering a large porch in a single season. The flowers are borne in loose clusters and are of a delightful shade of blue—something en- tirely different from any Rose in cultivation. Our stock is all propagated from plants sent out by the introducer in Germany, and is guaranteed true to name.
