made to this group ; one of the most so is Isabella 

 Gray, raised from seed of the Cloth of Gold Rose, 

 by ]Mr. Gray, a florist, at Charleston, South Caro- 

 lina. This is of a most beautiful bright yellow, 

 quite as bright as the interior of the flowers of the 

 Cloth of Gold ; its buds are, however, so hard 

 that they open very rarely. It should be planted 

 against a wall with a warm aspect. Celine Fores- 

 tier is also a bright yellow Noisette Rose, quite 

 worthy of culture. Another yellow Noisette Rose, 

 Triomphe de Rennes, will also be found very 

 interesting. This was raised at Rennes from 

 Noisette Lamarque, and seems to be crossed with 

 the Bourbon Rose, Madame Angelina ; its flowers 

 are yellow, tinted with fawn and rose ; it is not a 

 vigorous grower, but it blooms freelv. Margarita 

 Solfaterre and its relative the Yellow Lamarque 

 (or Lamarque a fleurs jaunes), are rather tender, 

 but most beautiful roses. 



Madame Miolan Carvalho is a very pretty ad- 

 dition to this group.

 Vibert, Fellenberg, &c., make pretty bushes for

 for walls and for pillars in warm situations in the 

 south of England, requiring even then the pro- 

 tection recommended for pillar roses, p. 120. A 

 well-grown pillar of such a rose as Cloth of Gold
