Fontaine, 1868. Cherry- red, double, 

 fades quickly, straggling habit, 



E. Verdier, 1861. Maroon- tinged with 

 violet, a well-formed, globular flower. 



Pradel, 1844. Coppery-yellow, rather 

 loose form, very delicate habit. 



Ducher, 1870. Pale yellow, long buds, 

 quite a good Tea. 



Trouillard, 1856. (Sent out by Standish 

 & Noble.) Crimson and purple. 



Lacharme, 1852. Bright rose, with car- 

 mine centre, a very fresh shade, but 

 not permanent, semi-globular form, of 

 good size, not fragrant ; very free, the 

 wood is all but smooth, the foliage lus- 

 trous. This variety is doubtless of 

 Bourbon origin ; it is a beautiful rose, 

 but with its entire progeny is more ten- 

 der than any other types in the class. 



Damaizin, 1874. Bright rose, well formed. 



Thouars, 1853. From La Reine. Car- 

 mine-rose. 



Lacharme, 1881. Yxoxa. Jules Margottin 

 X Sombreul. White, tinged with pink. 



Guillot pere, 1870. (Sent out by W. Paul.) 

 Pink, tinged with lavender, not valua- 

 ble. 



Green flowers, of no beauty whatsoever, 

 only sought for as a curiosity. 



Lacharme, 1858. White, with flesh cen- 

 tre, medium size, double or full, well 

 formed ; a good rose, but of very deli- 

 cate habit. 



Bennett, 1879. From President X Sou- 

 Pert et Netting. Mottled rose, the ex- 

 terior of petals with a silvery lustre, 

 very large, very full, globular, having 

 the intense fragrance of Soufert et 

 Netting^ and like that variety mclined 

 to come malformed. The wood is very 

 thorny, the shoots slender. 



Bennett, 1887. Creamy-pink ; large, full, 

 sweet. 



E. Verdier, 1862. Rich crimson, double, 

 well formed ; a rose of splendid color.
