Jamain, 1871. Rose shaded with 

 lilac, well formed buds, no per- 

 fume; the color is muddy. This 

 sort would not improperly be 

 classed among the Hybrid 

 Teas, as it resembles them in 

 habit as well as in continuity 

 of flowering. 



Levet, 1873. Maybe briefly de- 

 scribed as an inferior Gbirede 

 Dijon, from which sort it was 

 raised. 



V. Verdier, 1S48. Raised from 

 Pieri-e de St. Cyr. Rosy-pink ; 

 large, cupped flowers. The 

 most useful of all Bourbons 

 for open air. 



LafFay. Rosy-crimson, variable 

 in color, sometimes deep mar- 

 bled rose. 



Robert, 1856. Rosy-fawn, the 

 centre darker ; ill-formed flow- 

 ers are frequent. A good rose 

 wLea in perfection, and of ex- 

 cellent habit. 



Plantier, 1865. (Sent out by Da- 

 maizin.) Violet rose, a poor 

 color. 



Touvais, 1866. Purnlis^i-rose, a 

 muddy hue ; double or full, 

 fragrant ; of no value. 



Moreau-Robert, 1876. Deep rose 

 color; rather small, cup- 

 shaped flowers, not unlike 

 ApoUine. Only wo.iiiy of a 

 place in very large collec- 

 tions. 



Cocbef, 1855. Raised from Giant 

 of Battles. Deep crimson.
