inquinans breed, but apparently less robust, and manifests a 

 shorter and better habit, indicated by its thinner, finely-ex- 

 panded orbicular leaves, remarkably even, and nearly forming 

 a perfect circle, showing a tendency to develope its axillary 

 buds more freely than Gloire de Nancy." It has been awarded 

 a first-class certificate by the Imperial Horticultural Society of 

 Fiance, a first prize at the Exposition Universclle at Paris, and a 

 silver medal at the Horticultural Society of Dijon; in colour 

 we may perhaps best describe it as a double BeauU de Suresnes.
