 nificently formed buds and flowers, -wliicU. In color are dark

New Hardy Climbing Rose.-.-.-. 



Si^er-blooming Prairie Queen 



Introduced and for sale only by The Dingee & Conard Co. 



AMONG hardy Climbing Roses, that good old variety, Prairie Queen, has 

 long been considered the best of its, color. In this new Rose we 

 believe we have a variety that is fteiier. It blooms profusely the first 

 year ; even small pot plants produce numerous clusters of flowers, while a 

 two-year-old plant will bear more flowers than a five-year-old plant of the 

 older variety. Again this variety is a true perpetual bloomer, and while 

 Prairie Queen produces but one crop of flowers in a year. Ever-blooming 

 Prairie Queen blooms continuously throughout the entire season. The 

 flowers are very fragrant, and in color dark carmine rose; large, 

 very double and borne in clusters. It is perfectly hardy, having with us 

 withstood 10° below zero unprotected and in an exposed position. Difficult 

 to propagate, but once established is a good grower. 



Onet^year-old plants, 6o cts. each ; 2 for $i. Two=year-old plants, $i 

 each, by Express.
