NEW TEA ROSE— SOUVENIR D'ELIZE. 



(Plate 117.) 



This new Tea Rose, which is very correctly represented in our 

 plate for this month, is a seedling raised by M. Marest, nursery- 

 man, of Paris, and was taken by our artist, Mr. Andrews, from a 

 plant in the nursery of Messrs. Standish &: Noble, of Bagshot. 

 This addition to our list of Tea Roses is a very desirable and 

 beautiful one, fragrant, and quite hardy, which is an advantage 

 not to be lost sight of by Rose growers; for the great failing in the 

 beautiful section of Roses to which this belongs is that they are 

 rarely hardy enough to thrive without some protection during 

 winter, for which reason we do not find them so extensively grown 

 as out-door plants as they otherwise would be, and for which their 

 delicate shades of colour and delightful fragrance would render 

 them invaluable. 



Messrs. Standish & Noble pay great attention to the introduction 

 of new Roses from the continental gardens, and import annually 

 all the best new kinds. They have very kindly furnished us with a 

 select list of a few good new Roses, which have been well proved 

 in their nursery, and which will, we doubt not, be very acceptable 

 to Rose growers in making additions to their stock. We hope to 

 increase this list by further notices in our next number. 



H.P, Victor Trouillard, flowers of the deepest crimson, foliage very fine, 

 and in every respect a magnificent Rose. The entire stock of this 

 variety is in our own (Messrs. Standish & Noble's) hands; we 

 purchased it from the raiser, a gentleman at Angers.
