 mine-rose flowers, not full 

 enough ; growth very rank. 



E. Verdier, 1875. Velvety crim- 

 son, with fiery centre ; large, 

 full flowers, fragrant ; short 

 wood, sharp red spines ; shows 

 traces of Bourbon blood. A 

 rose of better form and finish 

 than most of the very dark 

 sorts. Shy in autumn.

 type. Glossy rose, large and 

 full, fragrant ; unreliable as to

 tumn.

 Margottin. Rosy-carmine. 



Rousseau, 1837. Blush, often 

 white ; fragrant,

 grant ; esteemed for forcing.

 double, cupped form ; very 

 spiny, straggling growth ; 

 shows Bourbon origin.

low. 

 Dark crimson. Not valuable. 



Introduced to England from Chi- 

 na in 1789. Rich crimson, spe- 

 cially valued for its fine buds. 

 A useful sort for bedding out 

 and for forcing. The best of 

 the class.
