These require a little protection during winter, in the Northern 

 States. They are mostly ever-blooming, and universally admired 

 on this account. They should be planted in the open ground in 

 June, and may be again taken up in September; or protected with 

 moss er evergreens, and suffered to remain out all winter. The 

 most common are the China Blush aad Sanguined ; I3ie Champney's 

 Blush Cluster, and Noisette; of these last there are many varieties, 

 all blooming in superb clusters. Others, less common, are the 

 Knight's Resplendent, the Grandval^ or Hermtie, more splendid 

 still ; but both these last are of a dark crimson hue ; the Blush 

 Tea Scented, of exquisite fragrance^ and the Undulata. The Mul- 

 tiflorus, Blush, and White, and the Lady Banks's White and Yellow, 

 and the Grevilli, are all running roses, and blossom in beautiful 

 ^clusters; but they do not blossom well except in a warm exposition.

 not common, but celebrated new kinds. Also La Triomphe d'Arcole^
