184 THE ROSE. 
most charming white roses; the flowers are 
freely produced throughout June and the 
summer months. The varieties belonging 
to the type are Eliza Boelle, Madame Noman, 
and Madame Oswald de Kerchove. 
MADAME A. DE ROUGEMONT TyPE.—The 
varieties of this type differ greatly from 
those of the preceding. The habit of growth 
is free or vigorous; the wood is smoother, 
the foliage more oval and glaucous, like the 
Bourbon roses; the flowers are even more 
freely produced than those of the other type,

principal sorts are: Baronne de Maynard, 
Coquette des Alpes, Coquette des Blanches, 
Madame Auguste Perrin, Madame Francois 
Pittet, Perfection des Blanches. 
GLOIRE DE Dijon TypEe.—The head of this 
family was sent outin 1853, andis the variety 
from which most of the Climbing Teas have 
sprung. Young plants of this type are often 
difficult to start after being rooted from cut- 
tings, but when well established grow lux- 
uriantly. The parentage of Gloire de Dijon 
is unknown, but I believe it must have orig- 
inated from a natural cross between some 
Bourbon and Noisette (Tea-scented) Rose. 
The foliage shows much of the Bourbon 
character; the flowers are of globular form,
