Dingee Famous Hardy 

 Hybrid Perpetual Roses 



There is little question that Hybrid Perpetual 

 Roses, or "June Roses," as they are sometimes called, 

 are the most valuable of all hardy plants. They are 

 of vigorous, upright growth, have large, bold flowers, 

 frequently measuring 5 or 6 inches in diameter, and 

 are deliciously fragrant. These Roses will succeed in 

 any locality and are so hardy that they will live 

 through the severest winters with but a light protec- 

 tion of leaves or coarse manure. Some of the kinds 

 do not bloom until the second year, but, when fully 

 established, they all bloom freely at the usual time, 

 early in the season. The Hybrid Perpetuals will 

 withstand hardship and neglect, but give much better 

 results with good cultivation and rich soil. Always 

 plant in open ground, as these Roses are not suitable 

 for house culture. Our collection of Hybrid Perpet- 

 uals is by far the best in the country. Plants strong 

 hardy, on own roots.

countries agree that it is the acme of perfection in
