Our Great New Rose ^'Garden Gem' 



GARDEN GEM 



This great new bush rose we introduced after 

 extensive trials, as the best, healthiest and most 

 beautiful satiny-pink garden variety now known. 

 For sale only by us. A marvelously strong, healthy 

 grower under the most adverse conditions, thriving 

 even in extreme heat — just a grand grower. We 

 know of no rose that compares with it in absolute 

 healthy growth and freedom of bloom. A magnificent 

 bloomer, continuously bearing its beautiful, immense, 

 deep, double satiny-pink flowers of lovely form on 

 strong erect stems, making it one of the greatest of 

 all roses for garden cultivation and for cutting. 

 Hardy everywhere. 



Price, 1st size plants, 30c each, 4 for $1.00; 

 Extra heavy, 2 year old plants, 90c each, 2 for 

 $1.50 postpaid. 



On this page and to page 22 inclusive are 

 offered the famous Dingee Own Root Pot- 

 ted Roses for planting any time when freez- 

 ing and frosts are over, in the spring and 

 summer or in the fall. There are but few 

 growers that make a specialty of such 

 plants. We were the first in this country to 

 make a specialty of them. Letters from our 

 friends saying they bought roses on own 

 roots forty and fifty years go, still growing, 

 still blooming, will be found elsewhere in 

 this book. These plants are singularly free 

 from diseases of all kinds, require no pet- 

 ting, no coaxing and as a rule 

 no spraying to disfigure them. 

 There is no closed season for 

 ^i^ planting them, to speak of. 



Grown in large pots or 

 crocks, rested during the winter 

 at a temperature just a little 

 above freezing they have the vigor and 

 vitality to produce what you want— im- 

 mediate results both in growth and pro- 

 fusion of bloom. These roses will not be 

 found for sale in department stores or 

 similar stores and they are to be had only 

 from us. The prices are lower than last 

 year. The quality, if anything, better and 

 if you want perfect rose satisfaction plant 

 freely of them and get your money's worth 

 in good measure filled to overflow. 



These roses have made us famous in 

 every civiHzed country in the world.

Missouri — I have quite a number of your Roses and so far
