170 THE AUTUMNAL ROSE GARDEN. 



have been made since 1837 ; but the following are 

 pretty : indeed this term may be applied to all the 

 Noisettes known. Miss Glegg is a white rose tinged 

 with blush, of medium growth, worth cultivation. 

 Ne plus ultra is a fine cream-coloured rose, which

 is a new rose; this has lilac-rose flowers, which 

 are very double and well-shaped. Victorieuse, like 

 Lamarque and several others, is a hybrid Tea Rose 

 of first-rate qualities, but not very hardy.

 a yellow rose, as the extreme outer petals are nearly 

 of a cream colour, but when expanded it is one of
