XII MANNERS AND CUSTOMS 327 



colour is rather against it, the crimson having a 

 bluish tinge. 



Paul Transon (Barbier, 1902). — Shows more 

 traces of the Tea than most of the Wichuraianas. 

 Salmon pink, a good creeper, sweet scented, and 

 mid season flowering. 



Psyche (Paul & Son, 1899). — A seedling from 

 Crimson Eambler, but not such a rampant grower. 

 Colour, pale flesh ; flowers produced in trusses, 

 suitable for arches. 



Bene Andre (Barbier, 1900). — Saffron-yellow 

 tinged red. An early flowering Wichuraiana. 



Beine Marie Henriette (Levet, 1878). — A Hybrid 

 Tea, which, though now an old Rose, is still useful. 

 It is very vigorous, with good foliage, and the 

 blooms are large, red, and bright, full and good. 

 I have occasionally seen extra good specimens well 

 exhibited. It is sometimes called the red Gloire de 

 Dijon, which, as there is no resemblance between

 one should be as well-known as the other. It is 

 thoroughly hardy, is one of the very best and most 

 constant of autumnals. Useful for pillars and 

 arches and perhaps at its best on walls, still fairly 

 popular, and would perhaps be more so if people 

 would remember that climbing Eoses require food 

 and water even more than those in beds. 



Beine Olga de Wurtemhurg (Nabonnand 1881). — 

 An excellent Hybrid Tea of fine vivid colouring, and 

 good shaped flowers which are freely produced, one 

 of the best of the crimson climbers useful for all 

 purposes. 



Beve d'Or (Ducher, 1869). — Avery strong climbing 

 Noisette, with stout and rapid growth and early
