EXTRAORDINARY ROSES OF AMERICAN GROWTH 
GROWING AT THE AUGUSTA COTTON 
FACTORY, GEORGIA, MARCH, 1875. 
A rose-tree, Cloth of Gold, trained to wall of a 
mill, growing in heavy black soil (loam); planted 
in 1847; stem 13 ins. diameter—three branches 5 
to 6 ins. diameter ; 60 feet high, 50 feet wide, and 
blooms abundantly every season; some unopened 
buds were sent to the writer by Mr. F. Cogin, 
superintendent of the mill in 1875, whose descrip-- 
tion of this wonderful Rose-tree has been con- 
firmed to me by travellers from Georgia.
