Invaluable for cold-country planting. Note the beautiful foliage Nearly every home may have a dozen bushes like these Twelve Sunny South Roses If you live on the sunny side of the frost-line and wish a set of superior sorts for a warm country, here are twelve that we know you will find supremely satisfying.

Every home has room for a few climbers, because vines around a house decorate it as nothing else does, and to have vines that will hand you forth roses-imagine the pleasure of that!
Where you live makes a difference; roses that will grow to cover your house with bloom in northern New England are not the kinds to do the same in the sunny South. So, think of these things when you order, or, better still, leave it all to your grower, who will select to suit your home and climate. For example, here are three sets, each one good for the section indicated. Order accordingly, and you will get pleasing results. (See list of climbing roses recommended for this purpose on page 68.)
