The Dingee-Oonard Roses. — Roses are the most beautiful of all flowers, and it is safe 

 to say the DINGEE-CONARD ROSES ARE THE FINEST IN THE WORLD. They are 

 remarkable for quick and constant bloom, exquisite beauty and delicious fragrance. They 

 adorn the most costly suburban mansion, as well as the humblest cottage, and are now 

 dispensing their beauty and fragrance in tens of thousands of pleasant and refined homes 

 scattered all over the countiy, from the St. Lawrence to the Rio Grande. 



Constant Bloomers.— Our EVER-BLOOMING ROSES begin to bloom soon after they 

 are planted out and continue blooming through all the Summer and Autumn months, until 

 frozen up or covered with snow. The flowers are of beautiful form, very double and full ; 

 dehghtful fragrance, and of all the lovely shades of color that Roses ever assume. 



They do "Well Everywhere. — These beautiful Roses grow and bloom nicely in all parts 

 of the United States and most sections of Canada. 



Are they Hardy ?^No, not entirely so, though many varieties will bear the Winter in 

 most sections of the Middle States, if given a light covering of leaves or evergreen branches. 

 The tops may be killed quite to the ground, but if cut back to the live wood and the roots are 

 not hurt they will throw up new shoots and bloom as well as ever. 



Not a Serious Matter. — If they are occasionally killed by the Winter, it is not a serious 

 matter, as they can now be replaced about as cheaply as bedding plants, which are bought 

 for that season only. No flowers better repay their trifling cost than our beautiful Ever- 

 Blooming Roses, and, if necessary, you can well afford to get fresh plants every year. In 

 the South they flourish luxuriantly and grow to large size. 



Selection of Varieties. — Our friends can select any varieties they prefer, or, if they de- 

 sire it, we will select for them ; and if we are told the colors preferred, and what the Roses 

 are for, we can select with the certainty of giving perfect satisfaction. The varieties will all 

 be labeled exactly as if selected by the purchaser.
