Th red zeleick Rofeis in branches and leaves very like unto thie 
common red Rofe, but mich taller; the flowers are exceeding 
thickanddouble, full of {mall leaves in : the middle, and bigger on 
the outfides of the flowers, whichwhen it is full- blown will cura to- 
wards the ftalk; the whole flower is of a fine deep red colour, and 
inferiour to no Rofe ofone colour whatfoever ; the fent is like to that

Pe dwarf re ad tate by fome called ce Gilliflower Rofe, groweth 
low, and never rifeth fo high as the ordinary red Rofe ; like unto 
it, but with fewer thorns: the flowers are but fimall, yet thick and 
double; which in a bud before they open ftand round and eaven, 
as if they had been clipt off with a pait of Cifers, but when they are

Velvet colour, with fome marks of a lighter redinthem, and many 
yellow threds 1 in the middle: this feldom beareth any ftore of ee: 
neither hath it any better fent than the ordinary red Rofe,

Th marbléd Kofe in the manner of growing doth much refemble 
the Velvet Rofe, the greareft difference is in the floweéts, for 
thofe of this are larger, -wery-double, and of alight red colour, mar- 
bled, veined, and marked with a deeper and lighter bluith gray-de- 
line, very variably, fome more than oshers, and fome fadder and 
more inclining to purple, fo that many timesall thefe diverfities on 
one bufh are to be feen blown together; for it is a plentiful bearer, 
and, befides the beauty of the Rofes, the fent is very good, like, but 
better than that of the red Provinee Rofe,
