Alida Lovett. Bright shell-pink with light yellow shadings at base of petals, flowers of good size and quality. A most desirable climber. American Pillar. A single flowering variety of great beauty. The flowers are of large size, 3 to 4 inches across, of a lovely shade of pink with a clear white eye and cluster of yellow stamens. These flowers are borne in immense bunches, and a large plant in full bloom is a sight not easily forgotten. Bess Lovett. Resembles Climbing American Beauty, in shape of flower, but is brighter in color, a clear bright red, of good size and of double full-cupped form lasting a long time in good condition; a strong vigorous grower and very fragrant. Christine Wright. A most exquisite Rose, of strong climbing habit. The flowers are double, from 31 to 4 inches in diameter, borne singly and in clusters, of perfect form, beautiful in the bud and in the fully expanded flower; color a most refreshing bright wild-rose pink. Climbing American Beauty. Its name is somewhat misleading, but it is one of the best climbing Roses; a strong healthy vigorous grower, frequently making shoots from 10 to 12 feet long, and good sized flowers for a climbing Rose that blooms so freely; color rich rosy crim- son, of splendid form and good substance. (See cut.) Dorothy Perkins. Soft shell-pink, flowering profusely in large clusters, very fragrant and lasting, a grand Rose in every way. Dr. Robert Huey. Similar in habit of growth and form of flower to Paul's Scarlet Climber, but of an intense dark crimson color, and when fully expanded shows its numerous golden stamens, making a beautiful color combination.
