 Clementine Duval, rose and lilac. Comte de Paris, superb purple

 Marjolin, beautiful light red. Due d'Aumale, deep crimson. General 

 Merlin, light rose, shaded. Lady Alice Peel, deep rose. Lady 

 Elphinstone, rose blooming in clusters. La Reine, large lilac, satin- 

 like, superb. Marquisa Boccella, fine blush, very sweet. Mrs. 

 Eliot, deep rosy lilac. Princesse Helene, bright rosy purple. Rivers, 

 red, sometimes carmine. William Jesse, large crimson, tinged with 

 lilac. The Damask Perpetuals are fine Roses, but few of them appear
