The Great Rose " Charles Dingee 



How Dingee Own Root Roses 

 Have Grown For Years 



I have your Roses in my garden that my Mother planted 60 years 

 '°- Truly yours, 



MRS. BETTY M. LONG, North Carolina, Jan. 19, 1928. 



Dear Sir: — 



The Cochet Roses were received in fine shape. It does anybody 

 good to be commended and these are the nicest "year olds" that 

 I've ever seen and I have been buying for thirty years so just felt 

 that I must tell. Very sincerely, 



MRS. R. M. PATY, Bell Buckle, Tenn., Mar. 23, 1928. 



Dear Sirs: — 



I have some of your Roses which we bought last summer and 

 they bloomed right up into the very cold weather, beingl the small 

 pot grown variety that you offered for $1.00 they certainly have 

 proved themselves perfect plants and every one has lived. 

 Very truly yours, 

 ALICE V. JAQUES, WoUaston, Mass., Mar. 26, 1928. 



Please accept my sincere thanks for the 14 splendid Rose bushes 

 just received which you so kindly sent to replace unsatisfactory 

 order of last year. They arrived in perfect condition and I con- 

 aider them A-1 in every respect. 



Your action in the matter convinces me that it is your purpose 

 to give value for value, therefore, whenever I buy other Roses, 

 which I expect to do from time to time, I shall certainly purchase 

 from you because of your spirit of fairness and the fact that your 

 plants are on their own roots v)hich to my mind makes them worth 

 twice as much as budded stock. 



Again thanking you for your promptness in correcting the 



mistake, I am 



Very truly yours.
