ROSES THAT BLOOM THE WHOLE SEASON. 167 



finely rounded, of cup form. Madame Trudeaux 

 (Boll), an American sort of a dark violet purple 

 sliade, large imbricated flowers, produced in pro- 

 fusion, and giving a fine autumnal bloom. Olivier 

 de Sevres^ centre of the flower bright rose, circum- 

 ference pale blush, very beautiful and perfect ; 

 foliage luxuriant. Pahnire^ or Blush Per'petual^ is 

 still esteemed as a free bloomer, and the color is 

 very desirable in this class, which is very deficient 

 in light colors. Portland Blanc^ however, is pure 

 white, a rose of large size, perfect in form, quite 

 fragrant, and a good grower. Prudhorarne has 

 been always a favorite for its brilliancy and fra- 

 grance, giving a succession of flovrers of perfect 

 form. Xo good Striped Perpetual Eose has yet 

 appeared. Quatre Saisons, or Mordhly Daraasl\ 

 has been long an inhabitant of our gardens, where, 

 when established, and well nourished, it gives a 

 great profusion of its delicate pink flowers, in 

 clusters, the whole season. Its fragrance, also, is 

 so agreeable, that it makes it a great favorite with 

 all. The Quatre Saisons Blanc, or White Monthly 

 Damask, is not so constant a bloomer as the 

 former, rarely putting forth a succession of 

 flowers, unless in very rich light soil. The Per- 

 petual White Moss has already been noticed, but 

 we may here say that it is a " Sport," as florists
