NOISETTE ROSES (E. Noiset- 

 tiana). — This group is supposed to have 

 arisen by crossing the Tea Eose or the 

 Bengal Eose with B. moschata, the Musk 

 Eose, by a French gardener named 

 Philippe Noisette, who sent it to France 

 from America, and who may possibly 

 have used the climbing native American 

 B. setigera instead of B. moschata. The 

 climbing character of some of the 

 Noisette Eoses rather favours this idea, 

 but the sweet fragrance is a point in favour 

 of B. moschata parentage. Some varieties 

 are occasionally classed as Tea Eoses, and 

 it may be as well to consult both lists 



when looking for any particular variety. 

 The following appear in most catalogues 

 as Noisette Eoses. For general culture 

 and propagation, see p. 382. 



Aimee Vibert, pure white, beautiful 

 and full, flowers in large clusters. A 

 good climbing or pillar Eose, also as a 

 standard bush. 



AUster Stella Gray, a climbing Eose, 

 in the way of W. A. Bichardson, with 

 bunches of straw- and orange-yellow 

 flowers. 



Bouquet d'Or, deep salmon-yeUow, 

 with copper centre, large and fuU. 



Celine Forestier, pale yellow, with 

 deeper yellow in centre, free-flowering, 

 opens well out of doors. 



Cloth of Gold, deep yellow, edges 

 sulphur, a splendid Eose when it can be 

 flowered ; requires a south wall. Eather 

 tender. It requires no pruning beyond 

 cutting out weak growths. 



Comtesse de Galard Beam, canary- 

 yellow, free-flowering and a good climber. 

 Duchess of MecMenburg, pale yellow, 

 produced very freely in bunches. 



Fellenberg, rosy crimson, very free 

 bloomer. 



Fortune's Yellow or Beauty of Qlazen- 

 wood, buff striped with crimson. Eather 

 tender, and is best grown under glass 

 except in the mildest parts. 



Jaune Desjprez, light colour, fawn 

 centre, good climber, but looks well droop- 

 ing from a standard stock. 



Lamarque, pure white, with sulphur- 

 yeUow centre. Eather tender, is best 

 grown under glass except in the mildest 

 parts. 



L'Ideal, yellow and metallic red, 

 streaked and tinted golden-yeUow, quite 

 distinct. Eather tender, and best grown 

 under glass except in the mildest parts. 



Madame Carnot, fine golden-yeUow, 

 seedling from W. A. Bichardson, with 

 deeper centre, edge of petals paler. It is 

 rather tender, and is best grown under 

 glass except in the mildest parts. 



Madame Pierre Cochet, centre rich 

 golden-yeUow, shading off to yellowish- 

 white, a profuse bloomer. Eather tender, 

 and best grown under glass except in the 

 mildest parts. 



Marechal Niel, bright rich yellow, 

 large, free and fine form ; the best yellow 

 Eose in cultivation. Eather tender, and is 

 best grovsTi under glass except in the 

 mildest parts. It is subject to canker, 

 and is probably best on the Briar stock.
