Mrs. Robert Peary Climbing Rose Hardy Climbing ^Hybrid Tea Roses The Roses on this and the next page are noted for the exquisite beauty of their flowers, rivalling, as they do, those of the Hybrid Tea Class. They are all wonderfully strong and growing, hardy and vigorous, and in con- stant bloom all summer. In the middle sec- tions of the country and in the Northwest they thrive and bloom most luxuriantly, while in the warmer sections they fairly run riot in their glory of growth and bloom. Even in the coldest northern states they grow to per- fection, but will require protection in winter. ^Mrs, Robt. Peary THE GREAT WHITE, HARDY, EVERBLOOM- ING CLIMBING ROSE Introduced by The Dingee & Conard Co. A strong and rapid grower, coming to per- fection in the open ground. It is as hardy as any hybrid perpetual or Moss Rose and will withstand the most severe winters unprotect- ed. Small plants of Mrs. Robert Peary will bloom continuously throughout the season and the flowers are magnificent beyond description. The buds are long and pointed, finely modeled and gracefully finished, while the fragrance is indeed delicious. The flow- ers, when open, are of splendid substance, extra large, deep and double, produced on long, stiff stems, like those of a forcing Rose. Strong, one-year-old plants, 20 cts. each, 3 for 50 cts.; larger size, 25 cts. each, 5 for $1. Strong, two-year-old plants, 45 cts. each; three- and four-year-old plants, 75 cts. each. CAUTION.—Be sure you get the genuine Mrs. Robert Peary. Our stock is all grown from the original plant. ^Climbing Wootton A strong and rampant climber, growing in one season to a height of 10 to 15 feet, with large and heavy insect-proof foliage, it pro- duces superbly formed flowers in wonderful profusion. They are bright and magenta-red, passing to violet-crimson, richly shaded. Strong plants, l5c. ea., 4 for SOc; larger size, 20c. ea., 3 for 50c. Two-year-old plants, 40c. ea.; three- and four-year-old plants, 70c. ea. CLIMBING LA FRANCE. A sport from La France with a climbing habit of growth. A strong, rapid grower, producing large, delicate, silvery pink flowers in great abun- dance. 15c. ea., 4 for 50c.; larger size, 20c. ea., 3 for 50c.; strong, vigorous, two-year-old plants, 40c. each.
