AUTUMN EDITION, DINGEE GUIDE TO ROSE CULTURE 



Bride and Bridesmaid 



Dingee Everblooming 

 Tea Roses 



While not so hardy as the Hybrid Teas 

 or Hybrid Perpetuals, yet with protection 

 they will live through the winters in almost 

 all sections of the country, except in the 

 extreme North. In the South they are un- 

 excelled, whether planted in the open ground 

 or used for pot culture. The fact that one- 

 year-old plants produce a profusion of 

 flowers makes them indispensable to every 

 Rose-lover.
