DiNGEE Guide To Rose Culture 



Richmond. 



^ Virginia R. Coxe 



or Gruss an Teplitz. 

 First introduced in America by the Dingee & Con- 

 ard Company, and one of the most popular of the 

 famous Dingee Roses. 



For intense and dazzling color there is no other 

 Rose to compare with this splendid kind. The flow- 

 ers are large and handsome, moderately double, of 

 splendid substance, and are produced in amazing 

 profusion during the whole of the growing season; 

 in fact, it is always in bloom. The color is fiery 

 crimson, shaded with a dark velvety sheen, a com- 

 bination found in no other Rose. 



The fragrance of Virginia R. Coxe is unexcelled 

 by that of any other variety under cultivation. It is 

 a strong and sturdy grower, often attaining a height 

 of four or five feet, is perfectly hardy in all sections 

 and is one of the finest of the many splendid Roses 

 that have come to us from Europe, and has won 

 friends wherever grown here in America, which is 

 attested to by the fact that the demand increases 

 each season. 



HYBRID TEA ROSES— Continaea. 



Richmond 



A Gorgeous Crimson Rose. 



The most gorgeous Rose we have ever seen — no 

 other variety can compare with it. In form and fra- 

 ■grance of flower it is simply superb. Wonderfully 

 free blooming, its immense, fragrant, scarlet-crimson 

 flowers are borne on long, stiff stems, making it a 

 rival of American Beauty, and even more dazzling: 

 in appearance. Considered the standard deep crim- 

 son Rose in the florists' shops, selling at all times 

 for high prices. In the garden its flowers are as fine: 

 as those found in the greenhouses. Perfectly hardy. 



SENATEUR MASCURAND — An amber yellow 

 Hybrid Tea Rose, the center of the bloom resem- 

 bling the color of the yolk of an ^^^, toning to 

 high sulphur-yellow. Large, full, globular blooms. 

 A strong, healthy grower and very free bloomer. 

 Blooms of large, perfect shape. Perfectly hardy. 

 A Rose soon to become one of the most popular 

 yellow Roses grown. 



*TRIUMPH DE PEIRNET PERE— A French Rose, 

 originated by Jean Pernet, of France. Flowers 

 large, with broad, thick petals, and long pointed 

 buds. Delicious Tea fragrance. Clear magenta- 

 red passing to bright crimson. A magnificent 

 garden Rose as it makes a strong, sturdy growth.
