This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1916 edition. Excerpt: ...and Rose Growing," by Rose G. Kingsley (The Macmillan Co.). wood on Wichuraiana and training the pliant, new canes over wire frames in the shape of arches. Undoubtedly very pretty effects could be obtained by this method. She also states that the Banksias, some of the Multifloras such as Crimson Rambler, and one Noisette, Fortune's Yellow, "only flower on the sub-laterals, i.e., on wood three years old." We knew that Crimson Rambler needed practically only thinning, but were ignorant of the interesting fact regarding the sub-laterals. It will be readily understood how easily the above-named climbers could be spoiled by unintelligent pruning. Hybrid Tea and Hybrid Perpetual Climbers (other than sports) and Polyantha Climbers should be treated on somewhat the same principle as the Wichuraiana Climbers. The difference is that their wood winter kills more easily, and therefore no thinning out of old canes should be done before spring, and then only when such canes crowd the new growths. The laterals on the main canes should be cut back to from two to four eyes. Climbing Sports of dwarf roses, Tea Climbers and Noisettes should be pruned more sparingly. Old canes should only be removed as they become profitless, laterals but slightly shortened unless they are crowded. In the case of all climbers better results will be obtained if they are carefully and systematically trained and fastened in place. Most Hybrid Tea Climbers, Noisettes, and all the Teas need winter protection, as above described. For all climbers, on account of the greater evaporation due to their larger growth, much more water is necessary than for dwarfs. We strongly recommend for them the peat moss mulch, noted later.
