The Darkest of a'l Crimson Tea Roses, 



"Marion Dingee." 



UR illustration will afford an idea of the; magnifi';<int bfiauty of 

 this grand new Rose. It was raised from seed of the beautiful 

 Countess de Caserta, crossed with Duchess of Edinburgh, and 

 named in honor of the daughter of the senior member of our Company, 

 now a little Miss of ten Summers. This Rose, in color, is unlike anything yet 

 seen in Tea Roses, and it is at the same time remarkable for its freedom and 

 constancy of bloom in open ground. From t?ie standpoint of the home planter, 

 it is perhaps the most valuable of all Tea Roses. Certain it is that no Rose has 

 attained such popularity as has Marion Dingee. As an outdoor r<ose it has no 

 superior, and the increasing demand for it affords ample evidence that the fact is 

 generally known. Marion Dingee was introduced by us. 



It is a strong, vi;:jorous (grower, makinj; | nearlv upright on lonjf straight stems and 



handsome, erraceful buKh, with larjje 

 M(k <leep-K''een leaves; the flowers are 



r;;e, beautifully cup-shaped, moderately 

 lull, and borne in wonderful profusion 

 all throujjh the growinfj season ; in fact, 



we scarcely krxjw of any other Rose 

 that will produce as many perfect flow- 

 ers in a i^i ven time ; the flowers are borne
