Shrub. June. 



A densely branched bush, about three feet high, distinguished in 

 the common French plant by long, slender, flexuose twigs, 

 with large, nearly straight, or falcate, or even uncinate, 

 prickles, and small, distant, spear-shaped leaflets, mostly seven, 

 acute, (mostly, but not invariably,) at the base as well as at the 

 point. The petioles are glandulose, sometimes hairy, and bear 

 a few straightish or curved prickles. The peduncles and calyx- 

 tuhe are usually naked, but occasionally both, or the former 

 only, bear setae, which are larger on the base of the tube, 

 although less remarkably than in R. rubiginosa. The calyx- 

 segments axe variously glandulose, and the narrowly spear- 

 shaped pinnae issue more or less exactly at right angles, 

 and have little sharp divaricated, gland-tipped teeth. The
