" CHARLES DINGEE " 



The Most Wonderful Bush Rose in the World and a Great Winter Bloomer 



(Seethe Colored Photographic Illustration on Back Cover) 



To honor the name of Charles Dingee, we have 

 produced a Rose better than any other variety 

 in cultivation. We say, without fear of contra- 

 diction, that the Charles Dingee Rose is far-and- 

 away the best garden Rose for general planting in 

 the world. 



It is always blooming, whether it is growing for 

 us or growing for you. The flowers are beautiful 

 beyond description, immense in size, deep, double 

 and grandly formed. It is hardy everywhere. 



The Charles Dingee Rose is the result of cross- 

 breeding between Hermosa, that grand old hardy 

 pink variety, and White Ma man Cochet, perhaps 

 the greatest of all white garden Roses — a superb 

 parentage, which insures its offspring every point of 



of a Hybrid Perpetual, growing to perfection in 

 almost any soil or situation it has the most mag- 

 nificent foliage, absolutely free from disease, that 

 we have ever seen on any Rose. 



We have had it growing and blooming in all its 

 glory in a temperature very little above freezing. 

 Growing to a height of 2 to 3 feet, Charles Dingee 

 blooms continuously, producing immense, deep, 

 double, grandly formed flowers on long, stiff, erect 

 stems; both in bud and bloom their beauty is 

 nothing short of superb, practically impossible to 

 describe because of the delicate blending of colors — 

 rose tints in the center of the flower, gradually 

 shading off into pale blush creamy white, a color 

 effect both entirely new and distinct, exquisitely 

 beautiful. 



excellence. With the hardy, vigorous constitution

DINGEE WINTER BLOOMING CARNATIONS 



(Illustration on opposite page). 



As a fall and winter-blooming plant for house 

 culture we recommend the Carnation as one of the 

 very best. It is as easily grown as a Geranium and 

 equally satisfactory. You know how high-priced 

 Carnation blooms are during the winter. Don't 

 buy them — grow them yourself. You can have an 

 abundance of flowers at a trifling cost. Follow these 

 directions and you will succeed. Plant in good soil, 

 give plenty of water and drain well. Let the plant 

 be cool at night: this is an important requirement. 

 A 40 degree to 50 degree temperature is about 

 right. Keep the dead foliage picked off. We offer 

 extra-large, field grown plants; they will bloom 

 continually throughout the winter. Fine plants can 

 be sent by mail; it is best, however, to send them 

 by express when possible, as they arrive in much 

 better condition.
