AUTUMN EDITION, DINGEE GUIDE TO ROSE CULTURE 



Dingee Hardy Climbing Rose 



Hardy Climbing Roses have the popular call. They have become an absolute necessity 

 for beautifying the home, for training over porches, verandas, trellises and pergolas, and 

 they make most beautiful flowering hedges when trained on low supports. All the Climb- 

 ing Roses in our unequalled list are on their own roots — a most vital point in a Climbing 

 Rose. Some are absolutely hardy in the coldest parts of the country, while others, growing 

 luxuriantly in the middle and southern sections, require some slight protection in the 

 North. 



The Blue Bose (Veilchenblau, or Violet- 

 Blue). One of the most unique introduc- 

 tions in Roses in a generation. A wonder- 

 fully rampant grower, bearing great trusses 

 of handsome violet-blue Roses which create 

 an effect never before known in the history 

 of Rose-growing. The foliage is large, 

 healthy, a beautiful shade of green and im- 

 mune from attacks of insects. 



Fink Bambler. Handsome climbing Rose 

 bearing great trusses of fresh pink flowers. 



Climbing 1 Killarney. A climbing variety 

 of the famous pink Rose, Killarney. A 

 strong, rapid, grower, and is entirely hardy. 

 It blooms continuously.

Dingee Climbing Roses 



Climbing- Clothilde Soupert. An offspring 

 of that famous Rose, Clotilde Soupert, this 

 beautiful hardy, evef-blooming climber is 

 of that famous Rose, Clothilde Soupert, this 

 of finely formed flowers throughout the 

 entire growing season — ivory-white, large, 

 round, perfectly double, with beautifully 

 imbricated petals, the odor of which is de- 

 lightful. 



Climbing* Meteor. True climbing habit, 

 attaining a height of 10 to 15 feet in a 

 single season. Free, persistent bloomer, 

 with magnificently formed, dark velvety 

 crimson buds. 



Climbing* Wootton. The flowers are bright 

 and magenta-red, passing to 

 violet-crimson, richly shaded. 

 The bush is a rampant climber, 

 growing 10 to 15 feet each year, 

 and is perfectly hardy. 



Climbing* Helen Gould (Mme. 

 Driout). Warm, rosy crimson 

 flowers, sometimes beautifully 

 striped, flamed and shaded in 

 bright carmine over pale rose. 

 Strong in growth and constant- 

 ly in bloom. 



Keystone. A deep lemon-yel- 

 low Rose, with a fragrance 

 much like that of magnolia 

 blossoms. It readily attains 

 a height of 15 feet in a single 

 season, branching freely, and 

 has always come through the 

 winter without damage, even in 

 the most exposed situations. A 

 strong, rampant grower, with 

 foliage not affected by insects. 

 -^Climbing* White Maman Co- 

 chet. For many years the old 

 White Maman Cochet has been 

 considered one of the very best 

 of all White Tea Roses, and 

 this new climber has all the 

 superfine qualities of that old 

 standard Rose, with added 

 value in its climbing habit. The 

 foliage is strong and of a de- 

 lightfully fresh green, is not 

 subject to disease or insect at- 

 tacks, and even when not in 

 bloom the plant is of great 

 charm, adding great beauty to 

 the house.
