 Hardy, Ever- 

 Blooming, Climbing Rose 



Mrs. Robert Peary 



Introduced and for Sale by THE DINGEE & CONARD CO. 





Mrs. Robert Peary is an offspring of that great Rose, 

 Kaiserin Augusta Victoria. We paid $500 for the 

 original plant growing in a four-inch pot, and con- 

 sidered it cheap at that price. It was named in honor of 

 Mrs. Robert Peary, that intiepid woman who braved the 

 penis of the frozen Northern desert with her husband in 

 his attempt to reach the North Pole. We regard the 

 name as a worthy tribute to American women in 

 general, in whose honor we have dedicated this grand 

 ""new Rose. It is a strong and rapid groover, with- 

 out a weak spot, growing to perfection in the 

 open ground, and throwing up numerous shoots 

 10 to 15 feet high. It is as hardy as any Hybrid 

 Perpetual or Moss Rose, and will withstand, 

 unprotected, the most severe winters. Small plants 

 bloom continuously throughout the season, not once or 

 twice, but all the time, iust as does its parent. The 

 flowers are simply magnificent. No illustration 

 will do them justice. They aie the equals of the finest 

 and most beautiful cut-flower Roses. Of splendid sub- 

 stance, extralarge, full deepand double, they are produced 

 on long citift stems, like a forcing Rose. The buds are 

 long and pointed, exquisitely modeled and grace- 

 fully finished, while the frag^rance is nothing short 

 of delicious. Is a quick-growing, absolutely hardy, sure- 

 to-bloom Ro-e, and one that will give you flowers this 

 season. This is the only pure white variety that will do it. 



Mrs. Eli Brooks, Ma>"ville, Mich., writes us : 

 'The Roses I got from >ou last Spring were just grand. 

 Words cannot express the beauty of Mrs. Robert Peary. I 

 have a great many fine Roses, but none finer than Mrs. 

 Peary."
