CONNECTICUT. Tou will be Interested to know that all of the one year bushes 

 sent me last April bloomed in the summer, save one. That's good for young 

 plants set out by an amateur, isn't it? E. J. H.

Dingee Hardy Ever- 

 blooming Climbing 

 Hybrid Tea Roses 



These climbing roses are noted 



for the exquisite beauty of their 



flowers, equalling the Hybrid Teas. 



They are strong growing, vigorous, 



and bloom freely all summer. They ^r^j[ 



are not as hardy as the climbers ^ 



described in preceding pages of 



this book, yet they survive the 



coldest winters in the district of 



Philadelphia without the slightest 



attention and with protection can withst 



ery severe weather. In the warmer sections 



of the country, they fairly run riot in their won- 

 derful display of beauty. 



CLIMBING GRUSS AN TEPLITZ— Hardiest 

 of the everblooming Climbing Hybrid Teas. It 

 blooms throughout the season, exceptionally 

 satisfactory. Vigorous grower; heavy foliage, 

 somewhat subject to mildew. Sometimes^ this 

 fine climbing Rose does not become setablished 

 quickly, but given attention it wlil produce a 

 profusion of blooms of that fine dark crimson 

 of the parent, bush variety of the same name. 



CLIMBING LADY ASHTOWN— Strong, rap- 

 id grower; large, delicate pink flowers. 



CLIMBING LADY HILLINGDON — The 

 blooms are identical with the bush variety of 

 this same name, but the plant is a strong, vig- 

 orous grower, producing its buds and blooms 

 throughout the growing season with great 

 profusion. Price, 50c each for first size 

 plants; two-year-old plants, $1.50 each. 



MARECHAL NIEL— The wonderful gar- 

 den Rose of the Southland. Buds and 

 flowers superb, extra large, very double 

 and deliciously perfumed. Deep golden 

 yellow. In the North, should have very 

 careful protection during winter. 



CLIMBING WHITE MAMAN COCHET 

 — Exquisite white flowers, perfect speci- 

 mens of the White Maman Cochet Rose, 

 borne in profusion, covering the plant 

 all summer, a most constant bloomer. 



CLIMBING PINK MAMAN COCHET— 

 A pure Maman Cochet Rose of the Climb- 

 ing habit. Sufficiently hardy to withstand 

 northern winters with protection. 



CLIMBING RADIANCE— The name is 

 sufficient recommendation of this grand 

 climbing Rose. Color and formation the 

 same as the bush variety. 



MRS. ROBERT PEARY— A strong and 

 rapid growth, introduced by us. Small 

 plants of Mrs. Robert Peary will bloom 

 throughout the season and the flowers are 

 magnificent beyond description. The

These are the only everblooming roses 

 which can be called absolutely hardy. Their 

 growth is extremely vigorous, resulting in 

 sturdy, compact bushes four to six feet 

 high. Wrinkled leathery foliage, of a dark 

 shiny green, unaffected by insects or dis- 

 ease. They thrive under all conditions, and 

 are indispensable wherever plants requiring 

 little attention are desired.

 white Rugosa Rose. Strong and vigorous,

 Strong grower; perfectly hardy; flowers 

 large; well filled, fragrant. Silver rose. 



NEW CENTURY— Bright, rosy pink, with 

 red center, with petals widely bordered 

 with creamy white. 



F. J. GROOTENDORST— This is a new 

 type of Rose which might properly be 

 called a Rugosa Baby Rambler, it being 

 a cross between Rugosa and the crimson 

 Baby Rambler. Imagine a shrub-like Ru- 

 gosa Rose covered with trusses of crim- 

 son Baby Rambler Roses and you will 

 have a fair conception of this new hybrid 

 variety. 2 year plants only.
