Standard List of Everblootning Tea Roses 



That the Roses described on this page and the following page are mentioned only briefly must not 

 be taken to mean that any of them lack in merit. When a Rose proves that it is not well adapted to amateur 

 culture we discard it from our list. We offer so many Roses, however, that it is impossible in the limits of 

 a book of this size to describe them all as fully as we would like. We have grouped together these Roses 

 because they are so widely known that extended descriptions seem unnecessary. All of these Roses are 

 good and many of them possessed of the highest merit. Our friends will make no mistake in ordering 

 freely from this list. 



Our sixty years' study of methods of Rose-growing has enabled us to produce the strongest and most 

 vigorous own-root plants to be had anywhere in this country. The first firm to successfully grow Roses for 

 the mail trade, we have improved the quality of our stock from year to year, and today it is absolutely 

 unequaled in every good point. While those who can afford to do so will find two-year-old Roses highly 

 desirable, liberal planting of one-year-old plants of Dingee quality will give surprising results; the only 

 great difference between the one and two-year-old plants is in the comparative yield of flowers. 

 Prices of all Roses named in this and page following, 10 cts. each, any 6 for 50 cts., $1 for 15, 

 postpaid; two-year-old plants at 30 cts. each, $3 per doz., purchaser's selection; our selec- 

 tion, 25 cts. each, $2.50 per doz., by express. Try a dozen of these Roses, our selection.
