. Dingee guide to rose culture : for more than 60 years an authority 1918. Own Root vs. Budded Roses When our business was established, over 60 years ago, by the founder, Charles Dingee, budded and grafted Roses were the only kind to be had. They were as unsatisfactory then as they are now, and Mr. Dingee conceived the idea of producing Roses, for Anierican homes and gar- dens, grown on own roots in America and not in Europe. Other hon- orable gentlemen are engaged in the business in other parts of the country but we are the original producers and, notwithstanding the wild and unfounded claims of new firms, whose claim of ancient origin is by the vagary of a covetous imagination, the original "House of Dingee" still continues under the management of the founder's family, following in his footsteps and adhering tenaciously to the honorable traditions which he established for truth in advertising and reliability, and has inherited his intense contempt for sham and deceit. Don't be misled. If you want permanent Roses secure own root plants. We have been sending these owm root plants to every State in the country for over fifty years. Budded Roses seem so much larger and stronger than own root plants that anyone is apt to be deceived and induced to buy them. Read what others say about them, and purchase from reliable houses who have made the business a life work. â (^. m^mt.
