HYBRID TEA ROSES-Continued. 



A WONDERFUL NEW PINK HARDY U^l^n Mlllc 

 HYBRID TEA ROSE 1 l^lCil ITllil^ 



Introduced and for sale only by The Dingee & Conard Co. 



In the bright galaxy of now famous pink Hybrid Tea Roses it would seem impossible at 

 first thought to produce a new variety of superior merit. We have no fear, however, of the 

 result of public opinion when this superb newcomer is tried out in comparison with such 

 sterling favorites as La France, Queen Beatrice, Wellesley, Killarney, My Maryland, and many 

 others, for it is absolutely distinct, there being no variety in any class showing the delicate 

 tints and shadings found in this fair member of Flora's kingdom. 



It has that which is of prime importance — a hardy, vigorous constitution, forming a 

 symmetrical bush, and by reason of its unusually vigorous habit it makes a sturdy plant, 

 with large, heavy insect-proof foliage, which is a feature worthy of special mention. 



It blooms as freely as any Tea Rose, from the first days of spring continuously through- 

 out the growing season, and is rarely ever out of bloom, a single plant producing innumer- 

 able flowers on stiff, strong stems, well above the foliage. The flowers are glorious in 

 form, perfectly molded, with large, heavy petals of splendid substance, forming a long, 

 pointed bud, while the open flower is large, full, deep and well filled. The fragrance is 

 delicious beyond description, while the color is an exquisite shade of pink, daintily and 

 peculiarly clouded with lighter shades. 



Stock is limited, and orders will be filled in rotation as they are received. Strong, 

 young plants, from pots 3 and 3^2 inches in diameter, 30 cts. each, 4 for $1; larger size, 

 40 cts. each, postpaid; extra-heavy, two-year-old plants, 65 cts. each; large, three-year-old 

 specimen plants, $1 each. All on own roots.

"As large as American Beauty, as double as La France and as red as Richmond," is the 

 enthusiastic way the originator describes this beautiful new Hybrid Tea Bush Rose. The 

 color is vivid scarlet-crimson, and the flowers are marvels of beauty, large, bold and of 

 splendid substance. It has a strong, disease-resisting constitution, makes a rapid growth, 

 and throws up a profusion of canes from the roots and is always blooming. As an all-round 

 garden bush Rose it has no superior.

 cts. each, 3 for $1; two-year-old plants, 45 cts. each. $4.50 per dozen; three-year-old plants,
