Wichuraiana Ramblers. By Dr. A. H. Williams, Vice-President N.R.S.
The wichuraiana Ramblers fall naturally into two well defined groups:
I. The Early, containing those varieties whose main flowering season is in the month of June. They are mostly hybrids of R. wichuraiana with Teas, H.T.'s, H.P.'s, and Chinas. The trusses are as a rule not large, though they may sometimes contain a dozen or more blooms. The individual flowers are often large, sometimes four or five inches across.
Early Flowering Double Varieties.
W. F. Dreer. — A rampant grower, with slender pale green stems. The foliage is light green, but scanty. The flowers are produced in loose trusses of up to a dozen beautiful small rosettes; the petals are somewhat "quilled." The colour is almost pure white, with sometimes a tinge of pink on the outer petals. It blooms from early in June, and gives a second crop early in July.

Twelve Rare New Wichuriana Roses
Now offered for the first time. All are new Wichuriana Hybrids, hardy in all sections, and are literally Tea Roses, with climbing habit and undeniable hardiness. All bloom in clusters and we recommend our patrons to give the entire collection a trial. Wherever a hardy, vigorous climbing Rose can be used they will prove exceedingly satisfactory.
William F. Dreer. — Very distinct. Small foliage, flowers similar to Mme. Elie Lambert; creamy-white bordered with bright, rosy-pink; open flowers pure white. Very double, 2 1/2 inches in diameter. Fragrant.
