DINGEE'S ROSES ARE Ai-WAYS THE BEST 



HOW TO ORDER 



OUR terms are cash with order, except when satisfactory Bank reference is given, when we 

 will gladly open an account. Goods will be shipped C. O. D, when directed. Through a 

 variety of reasons letters are lost in transit. Prudence therefore dictates that remittance be made 

 so that in case of loss duplicates can be had. Money may be sent at our risk by Post Office 

 Money Order, Express Money Order, Bank Draft, Money (not stamps) in Registered Letter. We 

 will be responsible for the safe carriage of money sent us in any of these ways, and if lost will give 

 full value. Please do not send stamps for money. They often come stuck together or stuck to 

 the letter, so that they cannot be taken out except by soaking the whole. Silver in small sums, 

 carefully wrapped and registered, will carry just as safely and is far more acceptable. Canadian 

 customers can remit by International Money Order on West Grove, Bank Draft, or currency in 

 Registered Letter. Canadian postage stamps have no value here. 



A Guarantee That Means Something 



Do not be confused with senseless guarantees which mean nothing. The best guarantee is that given by a reputable 

 House to deliver all goods to any Post Office or Express Office in the United States or Canada in first-class growing condition, 

 and failing therein, to replace them immediately. THIS IS OUR GUARANTEE. Furthermore, we guarantee that when 

 goods are received if they are not thoroughly satisfactory we will make them so or REFUND YOUR MONEY. When plants 

 reach you in good condition and are planted with ordinary care there is no difficulty in guaranteeing them to bloom at the 

 time Nature intended they should, which is sometimes termed "a seasonable time." It would be quite as sensible if we 

 were to guarantee that they would bloom at any other time but at the time Nature intended that they should, the so-called 

 seasonable time. We are sure that a guarantee that states that Roses are guaranteed to bloom under the above conditions. 

 PROVIDED THEY ARE NOT WINTER KILLED OR DIE FROM ANY OTHER CAUSE, will be taken for what it is 

 worth. Dingee's Roses are guaranted to reach you in first-class condition, and if you give them any kind of care, WE 

 GUARANTEE THEM TO GROW AND BLOOM. 



Please Observe Carefully 



Whpn ordering please use the order sheet provided for 

 the purpose whenever possible. Simply fill up the blanks, 

 giving the number and name of the varieties wanted, with 

 price ; we will understand. Please do not interline or 

 make other notations thereon. Should you desire to 

 write us, kindly use a separate sheet of paper. Always 

 state when you wish the goods shipped, else they will be 

 sent you at once. Attention to these details will greatly 

 facilitate our work and prevent confusion, errors and 

 misunderstandings. 



Order Early 



Many of our customers order early and the plants are 

 set aside ; the earlier you order the better. We will book 

 for delivery whenever you direct. 



All Goods Shipped Shipping Charges Prepaid 



At prices given in this catalogue goods will be sent 

 postpaid by mail, except where plants are too large, such 

 as two-year-old Roses, in which case they will be sent by 

 express, purchaser paying the charges. On page 5, 

 however, you will note that we can send large Roses 

 prepaid by express at a slight additional charge, and will 

 do so when the proper additional remittance accompanies 

 orders where so directed. Wherever goods can be sent 

 safely to the purchaser's advantage by mail they will be 

 sent by this method postpaid. 



Errors 



As an evidence of our human failings we sometimes 

 make mistakes. Careful ag we are to protect ourselves 

 and our patrons, preach as much as we will to our em- 

 ployees, yet they occur ; when they do, notify us at once 

 and we will correct them promptly. We cordially invite 

 customers for our goods and do not intend that they shall 

 regret coming to us if fair dealings can prevent it. 



Dingee's Roses all on own Roots 



offered in this catalogue. It has become a common prac- 

 tice to offer an extended list to make a large showing and 

 carry but a few varieties. Customers are cordially invited 

 to inspect this stock in our greenhouses before buying, 

 whenever they can conveniently do so. 



Our Roses are all grown in pots, in good fresh soil, 



without stimulants ; are strong, healthy plants, kept free 

 from blooming, and with any fair treatment on your part 

 are sure to grow and bloom freely the first year, with the 

 exception of Roses of the Hybrid Perpetual or Moss type, 

 which bloom the second year. Roses differ in size accord- 

 ing to their habit, so do not expect all of them to be 

 exactly the same size. 



Canadian Customers 



Canadian Laws prohibit sending dormant Roses or 

 Shrubs into Canada except from March 15th to May 15th. 

 and from October 7th to December 7th, through the follow- 

 ing custom ports, w>iere they will be fumigated ; St. John, 

 N. B. ; St. Johns, P. Q. ; Niagara Falls and Windsor, 

 Ontario ; Winnepeg, Manitoba. All other goods, includ- 

 ing our pot-grown Roses grown under glass, are admitted 

 at any time, 



Foreign Orders 



10 per cent, extra should be added to orders going out- 

 side the U. S. A. or its colonial possessions, including 

 Canada, to pay extra cost of packing and postage. To 

 countries with which we have a Parcel's Post, goods can 

 be sent by mail. They also can be sent by express, but 

 the party ordering must give the name and address of 

 some one in New York who will receive the goods, prepay 

 the ocean charges and forward them. We pack lightly 

 and safely and the charges even to the most distant points 

 are very reasonable. 



Premium Plants 



We always do better than we promise in the way of 

 extra plants, so when the order will at all afford it we add 

 to it some plant or plants gratis, often choice new kinds; 

 several of the Roses now so eagerly sought after were 

 first introduced to our customers in this way — presented 

 with their order. 



All our Roses, with few exceptions — and they are noted 

 when pricing them— are on their own roots. We grow 

 and have in stock absolutely true to name every Rose 



CLUB ORDERS.— To induce our customers to make up club orders among their friends we make special attractive induce- 

 ments. The only requirements are that the club shall consist of the complete addresses Of five club names, including the clubber, 

 and that the order shall amount to not less than $10.00 in cash. Write for further terms under these conditions.
