260 The Rose Garden. 



in bud, opening to nearly white. Requires time to bloom freely, but when established 

 it is very fine. 



2. *CLAIRE JACQUIER ; flowers nankeen yellow, small, but produced in very large 

 clusters ; exceedingly pretty and distinct, and remarkably vigorous. Requires pro- 

 tection out of doors in severe weather. 



3. CRIMSON RAMBLER ; a very vigorous growing rose of Japanese origin, produc- 

 ing large pyramidal trusses of bright crimson flowers. For pillars, arches, pergolas, 

 &c., this rose has no rival ; it also makes capital hedges and large headed Standards, 

 or to isolate on the lawn or wild garden. As a pot plant, too, it is a great success. 



4. DANIEL LACOMBE ; flowers chamois yellow shaded with rose, changing to pure 

 white. 



5. DE LA GRIFFERAIE ; flowers deep rose in bud, changing to blush, large and 

 full ; form compact. Extremely robust ; this is an excellent stock for the Tea- 

 Scented Roses. 



6. ELECTRA ; a fine addition to this group. Its semi-double flowers, much 

 resembling Aglaia, are produced very freely, even upon two year old plants. Alto- 

 gether it is an improvement upon Aglaia. 



7. EUPHROSYNE (Pink Rambler) ; a beautiful rose, bearing large trusses of semi- 

 double rose-coloured flowers. The growth is very vigorous. 



8. GARDENI^EFLORA ; large trusses of snow-white double flowers, the individual 

 blossoms of which resemble those of Gardenia radicans. 



9. HELENE ; flowers pale violet-rose with yellowish white centres ; the individual 

 flower larger than Crimson Rambler, but not quite so double. 



10. LAURE DAVOUST; flowers clear pink, changing to flesh, dying off white, small 

 and full ; form cupped. The flowers are produced in large and elegant trusses, the 

 three colours showing on the truss at the same time. 



11. LEUCHTSTERN ; flowers single, of a bright rose colour with large white eye. 

 They are produced in immense corymbs, and when fully developed the plant presents a 

 most charming picture. Not so vigorous as Crimson Rambler, but well adapted for 

 pillars, either outdoors or in pots. 



12. MADAME D'ARBLAY (Hybrid); flowers delicate flesh, changing to white, of 

 medium size, double, produced in immense clusters ; growth very vigorous. 



1 3. MAX SINGER ; flowers bright red, changing paler in colour. A pretty 

 climbing rose. 



14. POLYANTHA GRANDIFLORA. Apparently a hybrid with the Noisettes. Its 

 blossoms are white, of large size, and abundantly produced ; growth extremely vigorous. 



15. POLYANTHA (Single Multifiord) ; large panicles of white bramble-like flowers 

 produced in great profusion. Of very vigorous habit and perfectly hardy. This rose 

 makes a good stock for the majority of Tea-Scented Roses. 



16. POLYANTHA THUNBERGH ; flowers single white, midway in size between the
