164 THE ROSE. 
Margottin, Marie Baumann, Alfred Colomb. 
Among the shades of rose that are most du-

Verdier, Egeria, Monsieur Noman, Baroness 
Rothschild, Captain Christy, Countess of 
Serenye.

Victor Verdier type, except the light ones 
like Eugénie Verdier; all of the Giant of 
Battles type, all of the Duke of Edinburgh 
type, all of the Charles Lefebvre family, Dr. 
Andry, Gloire de Ducher, Madame de Ridder, 
André Dunand, Camille Bernardin, Jean 
Cherpin, Madame Nachury, Emilie Haus- 
burgh, are examples of beautiful but non- 
permanent colors.
