saffron yellow in autumn. An abundant bloomer and of excellent 

 form. A sport from Souvenir de Mme. E. Verdier. A vigorous 

 grower, and one of the very best of its class. 



ANTOINE RIVOIRE (H. T.). Good grower, and very fine variety, espe- 

 cially in the early season. Rosy flesh. Cross between Doctor Grill 

 and Lady Mary Fitzwilliam. Prune by moderate thinning and 

 shortening the remainder.

ELLEN WILMOT (H. T*.). Flesh white, with centre of rosy white. Fine

 Fragrant. The brightest-coloured of all the very dark roses. Cross 

 between Mme. Abel Chatenay and Fisher Holmes. Stiff, vigorous 

 growth. Prune moderately. 



FRANZ DEEGEN (H. T.). Pale yellow, centre deep yellow. Buds long 

 and pointed, on single stems. A moderate grower and good rose. 

 Prune sparingly. 



GRACE DARLING (H. T.). Creamy white, shaded peach. Especially 

 good early in the season. Very distinct in colour. Growth good. 

 Prune moderately. 



GUSTAVE SOBRY (H. T.). Beautiful bright yellow flowers. Very 

 floriferous. A moderate grower. Prune moderately.
