The Most Wonderful Bush Rose in the World 



To honor the name of Charles Dingee, we think we produced a Rose better than any- 

 other variety in cultivation. We say, "Charles Dingee Rose" is far-and-away the best garden 

 Rose for general planting in the world. 



It is always bloominsr, 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 

 and vigorous everywhere, but winter protection in the. north always helps. 



The "Charles Dingee Rose" is the result of cross-breeding between Hermosa, that grand 

 old hards' pink variety, and White Maman Cochet, perhaps the greatest of all white garden 

 Roses — a superb parentage, which insures its offspring every point of excellence. 



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, produc- 

 ing 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 centers of the flower, gradually shading 

 off into pale blush creamy white, a 

 color effect which is both entirely 



new and distinct, exquisitely beau- ^M ^k. ^flflfl B David O. Dodd
