Mad. Jos. Combet.

 well arranged. Free blooming and sweetly fragrant; 

 color creamy white, shaded with rose, and centre yel- 

 lowish rose. An exceedingly sweet variety. 15 cts. each ; 

 4 for 50 cts. ; 9 for ^i. 



Triomphe de Pernet Pere.* 



Originated and sent out by Jean Pernet, one of the 

 most celebrated Rose growers of France, who considers 

 this the triumph of his life. The flowers are extra large, 

 having broad thick petals and long tapering buds, with 

 delicious tea fragrance ; color fine clear magenta red, 

 sometimes passing to bright crimsony very striking and 

 beautiful, and of such good substance that the flowers 

 retain their beauty for a long time ; very brilliant and 

 handsome. 15 cts. each ; 4 for 50 cts ; 9 for ^i.oo. 



Mad. Caroline Testout.* 



The petals are large and of the elegant La France 

 form ; exquisitely edged and bordered with clear silver 

 rose. Both flowers and buds are extra large and of very 

 elegant form ; the color is brilliant satiny rose, deepening 

 at centre to clear red. It is of excellent substance, keeps 

 its color well, and its splendid large globular flowers im- 

 press every one with a sense of its superiority and great 

 beauty. After thorough trial we recommend it as one of 

 the best, if not the best, of the many new Roses recently 

 introduced. It is said to be excellent for forcing pur- 

 poses; we find it highly satisfactory for outdoor culture. 

 15 cts. each; 4 for 50 cts. ; 9 for %\. 



Meteor.^ 



This splendid Rose belongs to the Hybrid Tea class, 

 and is admittedly one of the brightest colored and most 

 briUiant Roses we have, and is highly recommended for 

 bedding and general planting, as well as for growing in 

 pots and conservatory. The color is rich velvety crim- 

 son, exceedingly bright and striking, and both buds and 

 flowers are large and elegantly formed, fully double, and 

 borne on nice long stems, which renders it especially 

 attractive, as well as nice for cutting. It is a vigorous 

 and healthy grower and a quick and constant bloomer ; 

 quite fragrant; a really excellent Rose in every way, and 

 never fails to please ; moderately hardy, but requires 

 careful protection in Winter. 15 cts. each ; 4 for 50 

 cts. ; 8 for ^i. 



Cheshunt Hybrid. 



A very distinct variety, remarkably meritorious. Flow- 

 ers are large, full and double and fragrant. The color 

 is deep rich red, shaded with violet. .A. valuable and 

 scarce kind. 15 cts. each ; 4 for 50 cts.; 9 for %x. 



S. Lancaster Mass., Oct. 20, 1896. 

 The Dingee & Coxard Company: 



I have dealt with you, I think, for fifteen years or more, 

 and it is a pleasure for me to say that I have never seen 

 the first signs on your part to wrong a customer, but on the 

 other hand, from experience, I know if a mistake is made 

 (which is impossible always to avoid), you always have 

 willingly rectified it. What more can be asked ? You may 

 rest assured that I will send you what little business I can 

 to help you. 



RespectfuUv, Mrs. L. Robinson. 



MAD. CAROLINE TESTOUT.

The Dingee & Conard Company : 



The box of flowers came in fine condition ; many thanks 

 for the extras. I have sent several orders to other firmson 

 account of their cheaper prices, but have concluded that I 

 get more for the money from you, on account of your lib- 

 eral extras. I shall hereafter " stick to first principles." 

 Respectfully, Mrs. J. E. Foster.
