 even a yellow rubifolia rose would not be too much to ex- 

 pect. It is only nineteen years since the first Noisette rose 

 was raised ; it originated in Charleston, S. C, in the gar-

We cannot too strongly recommend all the above varie- 

 ties to the attention of every rose amateur or lover of roses.
