THE ROSE GARDEN IN AUTUMN, 
S are the Rose К of England, 
in their characters and contents; and 
space, and, although their ambition may be great, 
they are unable to gratify it; others are formed 
to meet the wants of an exhibitor, and, while it 
is perfeotly true that, if you want to grow Roses 
of first-rate character, you must be guided by 
the principles, and follow the аА as adopted 
class of growers, we are fain to confess 
tells you that he only wants а quantity of 
blooms, and it is in such gardens as these 
you are apt to come across flourishing 
bushes of Manetti. The grouping of Roses, 
that is, the employing a good number of the 
same variety, is one of the points on which, if 
there were space and means, one would very 
everyone in 
to get to Corinth, so there are heights in Rose- 
growing to which humble mortals cannot aspire, 
But there are some things which are common to 
all kinds of ardens, and suggestions which 
are pue to all; and the Rose-grower as 
look 
written about — 
ile 
they have а good bit of the hybrid, they have 
very little of the perpetual in them but, never- 
theless, there are many which give us blooms 
after the first flush of the summer flowering is 
over, leading us to pleasant reminiscences of the 
triumphs of the past, and cheering us with hopes 
of the future. 
Then we were without those lovely Roses 
which Philip Noisette and the French raisers 
generally have added to

Paxton favoured п 
— DA ia bilama into our Rose 
we are surrounded with lovely blooms of the 
many varieties of these classes which the last 
thirty years have added to our collections, 
Shoot succeeds shoot, and flower after flower 
opens, and until the cold grip of frost lays hold 
upon the bushes they never cease to enliven our 
gardens; it is true they are not brilliant in 
their colours, and so there is not the blaze 
amongst them that p a bed 
hybrid perpetuals (indeed, we do not indi that),
