DINGEE'S ROSES ARE ALWAYS THE BEST 



Dingee's Dahlias we offer rieid Roots. 



For several years back we have made a specialty of this popular flower, and our 

 collection now includes the very finest varieties in cultivation, and we have grown them 

 in larg-e quantities to meet the increasing demand. If the public knew how useful and 

 beautiful the Dahlia is, they would be planted in every garden in the country. They 

 require little or no attention, and succeed in almost an5^ soil or location. Their flowers 

 are produced in splendid profusion at a time of the year when flowers of all kinds are 

 very scarce — in the Fall. Many of them equal the flnest Chrysanthemums in form, while 

 others resemble Roses and Paeonies. No class of plants present more magnificent colors 

 almost every tint being shoAvn in them. After blooming, the roots can be taken up and 

 stored away in a dry cellar like potatoes, where they will keep safely through the win- 

 ter. Plant of them freely. Satisfaction is assured. 



SPECIAL NOTICE. 



All orders will be filled with strong field-grown roots which may be sent safely, and this we 

 guarantee, to any post office or express office in U. S. A.
