 yellow sweetbrier. It is also called Hogg's Yellow Rose. 



} It has long been questioned whether the Moss Rose was a dis- 

 tinct species, or merely a seminal variety of the Provins R-se. 1 

 perfectly agree with the latter opinion for in June, 1830, I saw in 

 my nursery a plant of the Moss Rose \vith a large shoot that had 

 sported back to the Provins Rose, and entirely destitute of moss on 

 either shoots or buds. We have no faith in black arid yellow Moss 

 Roses ; aU we have seen for such have proved false to their character
