Dingee Miscellaneous Hardy ''Iron-Clad'" Roses 



Under this heading vre offer plants of different classes in extra-large plants, grown in fields 

 under the same conditions as were the Hybrid Perpetuals. However, they very much differ from 

 those in habit of growth. The Tea and Hybrid Tea Roses are neither as hardy as the Hybrid Perpet- 

 uals, nor do they make as large plants: but they are considered hardy as far north as Boston, with 

 careful protection. All are excellent, heavy, three-year-old bushes, on own roots. The climbing Roses, 

 especially Philadelphia Crimson Rambler, Tausendschon, Crimson Rambler, Leuchtstem, Trier, 

 etc., are hardy everj'^'here and we supply extra-heavy three- and four-year-old plants of all of them. 

 The Cochet Roses are particularly fme.
