. Paul, 1881. "Pure lake, shaded with 

 cerise, almost mildew proof ; in the way 

 of Dupuy J amain, but distinct." 



Moreau-Robert, 1880. Raised iromPaul 

 Neyron. Bright red, shaded with 

 vermilion, very large, full, opening 

 well.

 size, full, well formed, fragrant. One of 

 the best Bourbons, highly commended. 



Jos. Pernet, 1887. Flowers medium ; 

 silvery -yellow, changing to peach ; an 

 abundant bloomer. 



E. Verdier, 1864. Rosy- crimson, quite 

 smooth wood ; a free blooming, excel- 

 lent rose. 



Rivers. Crimson, semi-double or double ; 

 no longer of any value.

 white, medium size. 



Bright red, of good form ; one of the har- 

 diest and most useful in the class.

 Deep, fiery crimson, very brilliant and 

 rich when first opening, but quickly 

 fades, medium or small size, full, well 

 formed, handsome, Bourbon-like foli- 

 age, very liable to mildew. This va- 

 riety and all of its type are of delicate 

 constitutions. 



Odier, 1845. Deep rose, sometimes mot- 

 tled ; often fine but apt to come mal- 

 formed or somewhat coarse. 



White, tinted yellow ; 

 large, moderately full ; resembles a Tea 

 rose in form and fragrance.

 jon. Rose color, tinged with fawn. 



Margottin, 1879. Vivid red, double. 



Jacotot, 1853. In color a combination of 

 rose, salmon and yellow ; flowers very 

 large, very full, good globular form ; 

 the outer petals inclined to fade. A 

 very useful rose, probably the hardiest 

 of the Teas.
