. Dingee guide to rose culture : 1850 1911. . White Dorothy Rambler Rose White Dorothy A White Climbing Rose of Indescribable Charm We include this wonderful Climbing Rose, an offspring of the famous pink Dorothy Per- kins, among our special features, as it is so exquisitely beautiful that it is well worth all the prominence it can be given. It is a rampant grower and in a remarkably short time will cover a large trellis with its long, sturdy canes clothed with brilliant green, shining foliage of splendid texture and free from mildew or attacks of insects. The flow- ers are of a brilliant, glistening white, each petal being daintily quilled like those of its companion, the pink Dorothy Perkins, and are borne in great trusses, completely cover- ing the plant, until it resembles a snow- drift. It grows to perfection in ordinary gar- den soil, sending up its long canes to a height of 30 feet in a single season. Per- fectly hardy in the open ground in all sections of the country. First size, from pots 3i^ inches in diameter, 20 cts. each; larger size, 30 cts. each; two-year-old plants, 45 cts. each; three-year-old plants, 75 cts. each. BORDEAUX.
