* This Rose, with a " Florist's privilege,'' has been sold for the 

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



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

 tinct species, or merely a seminal variety of the Provins Rose. I per- 

 fectly agree with the latter opinion — for in June, 1S36, I saw in my 

 nursery a plant of the Moss rose with 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 and yellow Moss Roses 5 

 all we have seen for such have proved false to their character.
