DESCRIPTION.

large, full, well formed, good in bud, 
almost without fragrance ; the buds do 
not always open. A fine rose when 
well grown, but it will never be useful 
for ordinary cultivators. 
319. Duke of Edinburgh,|G. Paul, 1868. Raised from General 
Wis. iii. Jacqueminot. Bright crimson, large, 
double flowers, little fragrance ; foliage 
large and attractive. Occasionally this 
is very fine early in the season, but the 
flowers lack substance and durability of 
color. It is more shy in the autumn 
than the parent ; not to be commended 
for general culture.
