THE VICTORY ROSE. 



INTRODUCED AND FOR SAI/B ONI^Y BY 

 . . . THE DINGEB & CONARD CO. . . . 



1 A^E have chosen to call this magnificent new variety TAe Victory Rose, not only to mark the triumph of the Ameri- 

 l/\i can arms, but to indicate in a more peaceful way as well the triumphant sl<ill of American Rose growers to sur- 

 pass the world in perfecting the Rose-nature's sweetest creation. 

 This is a free-blooming, strong-growing hardy Hybrid Perpetual. To say that it is an improvement over General 

 Jacqueminot, we think will be sufficient indorsement to make it the most popular variety of recent introduction. The 

 tlowers are beautifully made, very full, round and double, of immense size and splendid substance. They are borne 

 both early and late on long, stiff stems, and are deliciously fragrant. The color is deep crimson, rich and velvety, while 

 the foliage is the most handsome we have ever seen upon any Rose — deep green, large and of great endurance, making 

 it proof against all mildew and insect attacks. It is a splendid grower and is absolutely hardy in all sections of the 

 country. We consider it a Rose of wonderful value.
