VAN FLEET "USr The flesh-pink climbing Rose. No other climbing Rose has ever created such favorable comment as Dr. W. Van Fleet, for the flowers are so perfect in every way—form, color, delicate fragrance—and borne on such long, strong stems. Cut a bouquet of this variety just before the flowers open, and you will find diffi- culty in procuring any other Roses to compare with them in sheer loveliness. When fully established you can expect several canes 10 to 15 feet long every season, and these canes will produce masses of Roses the following June. The splendid, hearty growth, beautiful shiny bronze-green foliage, crimson thorns, and perfect hardiness, added to the exquisite blooms, make this the choicest Rose in this class. Open flowers are 4 inches and over in diameter with high- built center and beautifully cupped petals. The color is a re- markable, delicate shade of flesh-pink on the outer surface, deepening to rosy-flesh in the center. Flowers full and double, delicately perfumed; buds pointed ; stems 12 to 18 inches long, fine for cutting. From one plant hundreds of Roses can be cut for your friends, for selling, or for indoor decoration.
