■^ >^>:a, K I ^HE Roses listed on this and the three following pages comprise the 



best, latest and most beautiful productions of the famous Rosarians, /^ 

 and all lands have contributed to this collection. We have spared no 

 expense or effort in securing them. The 



United States Department of Agriculture, 



through its collectors in various parts of the 



world, have contributed to this list and it 



stands without a successful rival in this or 



any other country, and we offer them only 



after a careful watching of the habits and 



adaptability for outdoor culture suitable for 



our climate. The one-year-old plants are 



strong and sturdy, while the two-year-old 

 plants are magnificent, strong bushes which will take hold im- 

 mediately when planted, grow vigorously and bloom pro- 

 fusely. These are the largest and finest Roses ever sold, 

 and are in keeping with the high quality which has made 

 Dingee Roses famous the world over. All grown on 

 their own roots. Not budded, which is the usual kind 

 secured in the new varieties. These are the best of 

 the latest introductions, and have all been proven to 

 be just what they are represented. The stock of 

 these new kinds is naturally limited, and orders are 

 filled in rotation in which they are received, We there- 

 fore suggest placing your order early for these kinds and 

 we will reserve them for you, and ship when desired or at the 

 proper planting time. 



Red Radiance 



(Illustrated in Natural Colors on Front Cover.) 

 (Hybrid Tea.) — No Rose has yet equalled, certainly none 

 has e.xcelled Radiance as a garden Rose, when all points are 

 taken into consideration, such as hardiness, freedom of bloom, 

 vigorous growth and character of bloom. In Red Radiance we 

 have an exact replica of its prototype. Radiance, except in 

 color and bud. The color is a splendid even shade of clear red, 

 without a trace of any other color, retaining its vividness for 

 an unusually long time after being cut. It is a remarkable 

 bloomer, being constantly in flower, from early spring until 

 freezing weather. Strong, vigorous, branching grower, each 

 branch terminating in a large, bold, double bloom. Hardy 

 everywhere. Altogether it is a Rose destined to become one 

 of the leading garden Roses of America. Price, fir^t size plants, 

 on own roots, 30c each, postpaid. Strong two-year-old plants, 

 75c each, on own roots, by express.

 Rose. Strong, vigorous, upright grower with large, hand- 

 some foliage, and practically immune from disease or in-

 pink deepening towards the center and tipped deep rose. 

 Price, first size plants, 30c each; 4 for $1.00; larger size, 40c

 express. All on own roots. 



WM. NOTTING _Hyhr;ri Tea. This satisfactory bedding or 

 garden Rose is not known as it should be. Owing to its size 

 and freedom of bloom should be in every garden. Blooms, 

 fine, large, full and double and perfect formation. Color a 

 bright rosy cerise, with a deeper center. Fragrant. Hardy 

 and everblooming. Price, first size plants, 25c each; 5 for

Souv. de E. Guillard 



(Hybrid Tea.) — A good yellow Hybrid Tea that is 

 equally adapted for outdoor culture as well as indoor

 for that purpose. A vigorous grower, produces a 

 good bush in a short time, thus being able to with- 

 stand the severest weather without injury. Beautiful 

 long pointed buds, opening full and double. Color 

 saffron shaded coppery carmine, and when fully open 

 almost entirely yellow. Sweetly scented. Always in 

 bloom. Price, first size plants. 25c each; 5 for $1.00;
