THE NEWER ROSES. 



In the recent "rose numlier" of the 

 Gardeners' Magazine the following in- 

 teresting paragraphs are found: 



Taking the newer hybrid teas alpha- 

 betically, we first have Duchess oi Port- 

 land, which has flowers of a distinct 

 shade of sulphur-yellow; they arc also oi 

 full ~i/c, fine form, and freely produced. 

 Conrad Strassheim, flesh white, suffused 

 rose at the margin, appears to be well 

 deserving of a trial. Frau Peter Lam- 

 bert is said to be a pink KLuiserin Au- 

 gusta Victoria, and 



to b( 



the case it 



l,c 



witb carmine, arc a trio well worth; of 

 a trial. Mildred Grant is a variety 

 raised by Messrs. A. Dickson & Sons, 

 of Newtownards, and lias exceptional 

 merits. The flowers are very large and 

 globular, with deep center, full, and 

 with handsome petals; the color is a 

 rich cream, suffused with pale rose. It 

 has received the gold medal of the N. 

 E. S., and has on several occasions been 

 selected for the award of a silver medal 

 aa the best rose in the show. Perle Von 

 Godesberg should be a valuable addition, 

 for it is' said to be a golden-yellow sport 

 from Kaiserin Augusta Victoria. It is 

 in' German origin, and should be looked 

 for among new roses. 



Foremost among the teas of recent in- 

 troduction is the exquisitely-colored 

 Lady Roberts. The flowers are of full 

 size, finely formed, and the color i~ a 

 combination of salmon-buff and copper 



the exhibition box. and of immense value 

 for indoor decorations. As evidence of 

 the merit of the variety, it may be men- 

 tioned Mint Lady Roberts has' had two 

 gold medals conferred upon it. Mrs.

gin, the variety i- dese 

 Souvenir de Pierre Notting is an im- 

 mense train to the exhibition teas, and 

 will probably be well represented in 

 trade collections at the various exhibi- 

 tions. The blooms are large and of 

 superb form, and the color is a rich 

 golden-yellow, suffused with apricot. 

 Last year the National Rose, Society 

 awarded a gold medal in favor of this 

 variety, a distinction which has been 

 conferred upon it at several French ex- 

 hibitions. Poadieea is a lovely variety, 

 the flowers large and full, with high 

 center; the color peach, shaded with 

 pink and rose.
