THE DINGEE & CONARD COMPANY'S 



EVER- BLOOMING TEA ROSES— Continued. 



CORNELIA COOK.* 

 A Rose with Few Equals. 



For many years this beautiful Tea Rose has been one 

 of our most popular varieties. We have always recom- 

 mended it because of its superior merits. It is a rapid, 

 strong-growing variety, with splendid foliage, that rarely 

 suffers from the attacks of insects. For outdoor cultivation 

 H is hard to beat it. The flowers are borne with great 

 profusion, and in form, size and substance have every feature 

 to make them desirable; they are perfectly double. The 

 color is pure creamy white, sometimes faintly tinged with 

 ^ile lemon and blush. Indeed, this is a most beautiful Rose. 





RRINCESS VERA. 



La Princess Vera.* 



A Splendid Outdoor Rose. 



During the past season we had in our trial grounds several 

 hundred varieties of Roses. For strong, clean growth, free- 

 lorn and constancy of bloom and beauty of flower and color, 

 his variety was one of the few Selected as the best. Without 

 loubl this is a grand Rose for general planting, particularly 

 ior bedding in open ground. The flowers are large, finely 

 made and open beautifully; when fully open there appears 

 io be a flower within a flower, so perfect is the form. The 



color is rich ivory white, shaded and veined with fine coppery 

 yellow, and delicately penciled with pale blush. A truly 

 beautiful Rose, and one that by virtue of its great excellence 

 ranks among the best in cultivation. 15 cts. each ; two-year- 

 old plants, 30 cts. each. 



DEVONIENSIS.* 



The Charming Magnolia Rose. 



We doubt if there is scarcely any one who does not know 

 of the beauty of this famous old favorite. There is no other 

 variety like it, and none more beautiful or desirable. If there 

 is one variety more than another that we are partial to it is 



Devoniensis. It is 

 fine anywhere. 

 Planted outdoors 

 it gives an abund- 

 ance of its beauti- 

 ful flowers all 

 through the sea- 

 son. The color is 

 a lovely creamy 

 white with rosy 

 centre; large, very 

 full and double, 

 and deliciously 

 scented. This is 

 the one Rose that 

 should be seen in 

 every garden. 15 

 cts. each; two-year- 

 old plants, 30 cts. 

 each.

 SALVIATI.* 



A Iiovely Free- 

 blooining Rose.

 Rose of an attract- 

 ive color, beauti- 

 ful chrome yellow, 

 elegantly tinged 

 with orange pass- 

 ing to buff, prettily 

 flushed with pale 

 Rose; buds and 

 outer petals exqui- 

 site orange red. 

 The flowers extra 

 large, quite full 

 and very sweet. It 

 is particularly good 

 in open ground, being quite hardy, a free and constant bloomer and 

 a sturdy, vigorous grower. 15 cts. each ; two-year-old plants, 30 cts. 

 each. 



ERNEST METZ.* 

 A Strong-growing, Free-blooming Rose. 

 This is an exceedingly fine Rose of great merit, with large, hand- 

 some, full flowers and beautiful, long-pointed buds ; color clear, satiny 

 pink, edged with blush, the centre flamed with crimson. It is an un- 

 usually strong, sturdy grower, forming a compact bush ; in the open 

 ground it produces superb flowers with remarkable freedom. We 

 recommend this variety as an excellent Rose. 15 cts. each; two-year 

 old plants, 30 cts. each. 



FRANCISCA KRUGER.* 

 A Remarkably Fine Rose. 



A strikingly handsome Rose, one of the very best for open- 

 ground culture. It would be hard to name a better or more 

 satisfactory Rose. It is especially adapted to bedding or 

 massing. Holds its foliage under all sorts of adverse condi- 

 tions. The flowers are deeply shaded coppery yellow in 

 color, and are of large size. A strong, vigorous grower and 

 a good, constant bloomer. Just the Rose that will give the
