GARDEN CLASSIFICATION. 249 



and of a deep rose color. It is said to be fully equal in form to 

 Souvenir de Malmaison, and if so, will prove a superb variety. 

 Although a very beautiful rose, it has not bloomed sufficiently 

 long in our grounds to test its claims to the above high character. 



MADAME ANGELINA is a very distinct and beautiful variety, 

 resembling Queen of Bourbons in habit. Its flowers are cupped, 

 double, finely formed, and of a lovely pale-creamy fawn color. 



MADAME AUBIS is a vigorous growing rose, and suitable for 

 pillars. Its flowers are cupped, finely formed, large, and of a 

 bright rose color. Many of these roses are suitable for pillars, if 

 well cultivated and watered with liquid manure, either from the 

 barn-yard or made with two pounds of guano to twelve gallons 

 of water. 



MADAME DESPREZ is a very robust rose, blooming in larger 

 clusters than any other of this class. Its form is cupped and 

 very double, its color is a rosy lilac, and its luxuriant growth 

 makes it one of the best pillar roses. 



MADAME LACHARME is a new variety, of the same habit as 

 the preceding. Its flowers are of a rich blush, inclining to white. 

 It blooms in clusters of beautifully-formed and double flowers. 



MADAME NERARD is a fragrant and very perfectly-shaped 

 rose, of a delicate blush color. 



MENOUX is a new and very brilliant scarlet rose. Its form is 

 cupped and fine, and it is one of the most beautiful dwarf-grow- 

 ing roses. 



PAUL JOSEPH is the most beautiful of the dark, purplish-crim- 

 son roses. Its growth is robust and luxuriant, and its large, 

 thick, deep glossy-green foliage contrasts well with its brilliant 

 crimson, flowers. 



PREMICES DES CHARPENNES is a new, delicate rose-colored 

 variety, of moderate growth. Its flower is cupped, and its petals 

 are regular and unusually pointed. 



QUEEN is a very beautiful and delicate rose-colored variety, 

 slightly tinged with buff. It is cupped, very fragrant, large, and 

 double, and its petals are arranged with a beautiful, wax-like 

 regularity.
