The selection of the roses in this division has been a work of some diffi- 

 culty, but I now trust they arc arranged so as to be easily distinguishable 

 by their peculiar habit; they all make stiff erect shoots with dense foliage; 

 the flowers arc on short erect flower slalks, having rather a formal appear- 

 ance, to compensate for this Ihey are trim and neat, and are well adapted 

 for small gardens. Many of them differ in the pretty compact shape of their 

 flowers from all other roses, and in brilliancy and diversity of colour cannot 

 be turpaaaed, The spotted, .striped and marbled roses in this division are 

 very novel and beautiful, and will be appreciated by those who admire 

 variegated rusts. In Prance this is called the " provins rose," whence the 

 confusion in most Roso Cataioguea with the Provence Rose; the Agate Rose 

 is of this family, having curled leaves and pale flowers, Gallic Roses are 

 luu lumpish and stiff in their growth for Standards.
