New Rose "Columbia" 



(Note Illustration on Front Cover) 

 Not since the introduction of the glorious Rose, 

 American Beauty, have we been so impressed w^ith 

 any Rose as we have been with "Columbia." A 

 hybrid tea of wonderful blooming qualities; as free 

 a bloomer as any tea Rose; blooms all the time. 

 Almost thornless. Wonderful strong shoots four 

 feet or more in length, each producing a magnificent 

 bloom, often measuring six inches across the open 

 flower. Color a deep peach pink, deepening into a 

 glowing pink, a perfect color. The fragrance is 

 beyond description, sweeter than an American 

 Beauty. After a thorough trial we heartily recom- 

 mend it as a great outdoor Rose. Hardy as an oak, 

 thrives in any location, strong grower and soon 

 makes a great display. One of the most exquisite 

 Roses for cutting we have ever seen; produces 

 handsome buds, on long, stiff stems w^ell above the 

 foliage. Foliage is a dark green and does not seem 

 to be affected with disease or troubled \vith insects; 

 on account of its strong growth, it seems to be able 

 to ward both off, thus making it one of the most 

 popular outdoor Roses. Don't fail to include one 

 at least in your order; you will never regret it. 

 Price of own root plants: First size, 35c each; 3 for 

 $1.00, postpaid; two-year-old plants, 90c each, by 

 express; by Parcel Post, $1.00 each. Large speci- 

 men plants from 6-inch pots, $1.25 each, by ex- 

 press, at purchaser's expense. 



The Roses listed on this and the five follow- 

 ing pages comprise the best, latest and most 

 beautiful productions of the famous Rosarians, 

 and all lands have contributed to this collection. 

 We have spared no expense or effort in securing them. 

 We offer them only after a careful watching of the 

 habits and adaptability for outdoor culture suitable for 

 our climate. The first size plants are strong and sturdy, 

 while the two-year-old plants are magnificent, strong bushes 

 which -vs-ill take hold immediately when planted, grow vigorously 

 and bloom profusely. These are the largest and finest Ro°ses ever 

 sold, and are in keeping with the high quality which has made 

 Dingee Roses famous the world over. All grown on their own 

 roots. Not budded except where noted, which is the usual 

 kind secured in the new varieties. These are the best of the 

 latest introductions, and have all proven to be just what 

 they are represented. The stock of these new kinds is 

 naturally limited, and orders are filled in rotation as 

 -.^ . ^ they are received. We therefore suggest placing 



" ~^-vu.. your order early.

American Legion 



Hybrid Tea — An American production, having 

 been produced by Edward Towill, Roslyn, Pa. The 

 blooms of this Rose the past season brought almost 

 as much as the famous Rose, American Beauty, and 

 as it becomes better known, we predict it will be as 

 popular, as the color is such a pleasing shade of 

 cerise, which it retains until all petals fall. Buds 

 produced on long, stiff stems, well above the foliage 

 and of immense size, long and pointed, opening 

 full and double, a great producer. Foliage dark 

 green, free from diseases such as Black Spot, Mil- 

 dew, etc. Awarded First Prize for a new Rose in 

 1920. Silver Medal by the Penna. Horticultural 

 Society and the International Rose Show of New 

 York. \^'onderful keeper, thus making it an ideal 

 rose for cutting. Equally good as a forcing rose 

 or for outside, being absolutely hardy in all locali- 

 ties. Price — First size plants, 50c each; 3 for $1.25 

 postpeiid; two-year-old plants, $1.50 each; $15.00
