" * R. /. > 7/<>^ii D. Don mSii't. Brit. Fl.-Gard., t. 410. An uprigbt- 

 braiu hing shrub, with brownish purple branches, armed with nu- 

 merous, straight, spreading unequal prickles. Leaves pale green ; 

 petiole anil rachis slender, filiform, sparingly hairy and glandular ; 

 leaflets elliptical, imicronulate, doublv and sharply serrated, mem- 

 branous, glabrous and concave above, sparinsjlv glandular beneath, 

 .', in. long. This variety was brought from New York, by Mr. James 

 M'Nab, who received it from Mr. Thomas Hogg, nurseryman in that 

 cit\, by whom the plant was raised from seeds of the single yellow- 

 rose ; and it is known in the nurseries bv the name of ' Hogg's 

 Yellow American Rose.' It is a pretty variety ; but it is surpassed 

 in the fulness of its flowers, and in richness of colouring, by ^ il- 

 liams's double vellow rose. It is of easy culture, flowers freely, and 

 may be increased by layer*, or by beini: budded 

 on stocks of the sweet briar and dog rose. (Stet.

 rose, and not the preceding variety, which is ge- 

 nerally confounded with it." 

 u * R. i. 13 Bla in D. Don in Sict. Brit. Fl.-Gard., t. 405. A tall-growing 

 shrub, raised about seven years ago, by Mr. Blair, from the 

 seeds of the yellow China, which had been fecundated by the pollen 

 of the Tuscan rose. Its aspect is more robust than that of the 

 other varieties of the China rose ; and it is remarkable for the size 

 of its leaves and flowers. The petals are yellow at the base, espe- 

 cially towards the centre of the flower ; and are, besides, frequently 

 furnished with a white stripe along the middle ; a character also 

 present in the common blush China rose. The blossoms are pro- 

 duced in abundance : they arc verv fragrant, and their colour is of a 

 rich purple. It is a strong-growing kind, and there are few varieties 

 more worthy of cultivation. It may be increased by cuttings, or 

 budded on any of the common roses. 

 There are plants at Mr. Clay's, 

 Stamford Hill. ( Sirt. Brit. Fl.-Gard.,
