So far, we have only recommGndcd se- 

 lections from that class of Roses which bloom 

 but once, in June and Juhs being the first 

 division of most of the catalogues. The 

 second division comprises those which are 

 said to be "perpetual " in their flowering, 

 and are more or less in bloom from June 

 until November. Commencing with the
