Dingee Roses iSn Own Roots. 



"Charles Dingee" 



The Most Wonderful Rose in the World 



To honor the name of Charles Dingee, we have produced a Rose better than 

 any other variety in cultivation. We say, without fear of contradiction, that 

 the Charles Dingee Rose is far-and-away the best garden Rose for general plant- 

 ing in the world. 



It is always blooming, whether it is growing for us or growing for you. The 

 flowers are beautiful beyond description, immense in size, deep, double 

 and grandly formed. It is hardy everywhere. 



The Charles Dingee Rose is the result of cross-breeding between 

 Hermosa, that grand old hardy pink variety, and White Maman 

 Cochet, perhaps the greatest of all white garden Roses — a superb parentage, 

 which insures its offspring every point of excellence. The hardy, vigorous 

 constitution of a Hybrid Perpetual, growing to perfection in almost any soil or 

 situation. Most magnificent foliage, absolutely free from disease. 



We have had it growing and blooming in all its glory in a tempera- 

 ture very little above freezing. Growing to a height of 2 to 3 feet, 

 Charles Dingee blooms continuously, producing immense, deep, double, grandly 



formed flowers on long, stiff, erect stems; 

 both in bud and bloom their beauty 

 is nothing short of superb, 

 practically impossible 

 to describe because of 

 the delicate blend- 

 ing of colors — rose 

 tints in the cen- 

 ters of the flower, 

 gradually shading 

 off into pale blush 

 creamy white, a 

 color effect both 

 entirely new and 

 distinct exquisite- 

 ly beautiful.

Gentlemen: The Charles Dingee. Rose that I got of you last 

 spring is now in bloom. Had a killing frost last night but have it 

 well protected. It is a fine Rose. One of the best out of sixty-five 

 that I put out last spring. 



Yours truly,
