April."] HYBRID ROSES. GJ) 



Lady Stuart, flesh colour, the form of the flowers before ex- 

 pansion is perfectly spherical, and of exceeding beauty. 



Louis Philippe, very splendid dark rose, a strong grower, 

 superb. 



Parny or La tourterelle, lilac or dove colour, cupped and 

 very double, requires to grow to a largo bush before 

 its beauty of form and profusion of bloom can be 

 seen. 



Princess, delicate rose, globular and perfectly double, and 

 makes an excellent standard of itself, not being very 

 subject to make shoots from the root.

 form, a dwarf.

 rose, petals finely cupped, flower rather flat, is a free 

 grower, and very profuse of bloom. 



Wellington (Lee's), rich purple crimson, flower beautifully 

 formed j globular and very double. The first view of

 distinct in growth, and the colour fades much sooner 

 than in the latter rose, and, indeed, is never so bright
