 French rose-growers, but during our sojourn we

 Lady Seymour is a new variety, occasionally 

 spotted with blush, on a bright rose ground; quite 

 fragrant, and of a perfect form. La Gigantesque^ 

 rosy pink, an extremely large full flower ; plant 

 of good growth, very fragrant. La Gracieuse^ or 

 Volumineuse^ is very distinctive in flower and

 flowers are perfectly double, of a pale rose color.

 grant, cup shaped. Minerva^ pale rose color, very
