This Rose is unquestionably an acquisition, a novelty of high order, and most distinct in its characteristics. It is a running or climbing Rose of vigorous habit, strong and rapid growth, with handsome, shining foliage, and produces in marvelous abundance clusters of the brightest crimson semi-double Roses. Its clustered form, its brilliancy, the abundance of its bloom, and the great length of time the flowers remain on the plant without falling or losing their brilliancy, are qualities which will make this new claimant for admiration an assured favorite. For verandas, walls, pillars and fences, it is a most suitable plant. If grown in beds and pegged down, it produces marvelous heads of bloom, or it can be grown in bush form and thus become a most striking object. We planted this Rose outdoors last fall, along with Hybrid Perpetuals and other hardy Roses, and the plants have corns through the unusually severe winter even better than many of the hardy varieties, remaining fresh and green to the very tips. But it is not only for outdoor use that it is valuable; it can also be employed most satisfactorily for decorating indoors when grown in pots. 15 cts. each; 2-year-old plants, 25 cts.
