DiNGEE Guide To Rose Culture 



1910 



Mad. Jules Grolez 



RED KAISERIN AUGUSTA VICTORIA 



One of the very best of the new Roses, and one 

 that has so many good quaHties that we are quite 

 certain it will find a place in the garden of every 

 flower-lover. It has been thoroughly tested by us 

 and we have formed such a high opinion of it tliat, 

 this year, we have grown an unusuallj^ large stock 

 in order to give the Rose the widest possible dis- 

 tribution. 



Mad. Jules Grolez is an exceedingly free-bloom- 

 ing variety, with very large, finely formed flowers. 

 The color is a distinct and charming shade of cherry- 

 red. The fine form and attractive shape of the flow- 

 ers makes them excellent for cutting. Like Kaiserin 

 Augusta Victoria, Mad. Jules Grolez is a Rose of 

 great value for open-ground culture. It is a remark- 

 able strong-growing variety, as hardy as the Hybrid 

 Perpetuals, free-blooming and in every way excel- 

 lent. 20 cts. each, 50 cts. for 3; larger size, 25 cts. 

 each, $1 for 5; two-year -old plants, 45 cts. each. 

 CARDINAL. A new red Rose, which can be recom- 

 mended as better for forcing than Liberty, and, 

 in the open ground, equal to Liberty or Meteor. 

 It is a strong, robust grower, with large and 

 massive flowers, deliciously fragrant, full and 

 double to the center. Of easy culture and ex- 

 tremely free - flowering. This is one Rose you 

 should include in your order. 20 cts. each, 50 cts. 

 for 3; larger plants, 25 cts. each, SI for 5; post- 

 paid; two-year-old plants, 45 cts. each. 

 INTENSITY. A handsome scarlet of the deepest 

 possible shade, approaching crimson-maroon in 

 the older flowers. Free in growth and free bloom- 

 ing. The flowers are full and double, with strong 

 Tea fragrance. 20 cts. each, 50 cts. for 3; larger 

 plants, 25 cts. each, SI for 5, postpaid; two-year- 

 old plants, 45 cts. each. 

 CHERRY RIPE. Flowers of mediiim size, hght rosy 

 crimson, well formed, globular, of branching 

 habit, \'igorous and hardy, and as free as a Tea 

 Rose. 35 cts. each, $1 for 5; two-year-old plants, 

 60 cts. each.

 with Bridesmaid, from which it secured its fullness.

 remarkably free-flowering, with fine keeping 

 qualities. 25 cts. each, $1 for 5; larger size, 30 cts.

Lyon Rose (Pemetiana) 



The result of a cross between Mad. Melanie 

 Soupert and Soleil d'Or. Pronounced by experts 

 to be the most important introduction of modern 

 times. Flowers large, full and double, of remarkable 

 substance, shrimp-pink, edges coral-red or salmon- 

 pink, shaded chrome-yellow. Exceedingly fragrant. 

 A constant bloomer. Perfectly hardy. Has been 

 awarded the highest prizes at the many exhibitions 

 of Europe. Stock limited and exceedingly scarce. 

 Large, two-year -old plants (budded), $1 each. 

 ENCHANTER. The flowers are of remarkable size 

 and beauty. The color is a bright pink, which 

 never fades. One of the most freely flowering 

 kinds in cultivation. 25 cts. each, two-year-old 

 plants, 50 cts. each. 



I must express my appreciation for the way in which the 

 Rose bushes which I bought in November last have grown. 

 Out of the lot I have only lost two, and the others are doing 

 fine, some of them having shoots as high as 2 feet and nearly 

 all of them flowering. — C. N. B. Ingham, Hamilton, Ber- 

 muda, April 29, 1909.
