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 to 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 protection 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 stand 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 Perpetuals is by far the best in the country. The plants 

 we send out are strong and hearty and on own roots. The smallest size plants are grown in pots not less than 3 

 and ZV2 inches in diameter and are strong, sturdy stock. Many of our Hybrid Perpetuals are included among 

 our justly popular "Iron-Clad Roses," a color plate of which is shown on page 20.
