88 THE AMATEURS’ GUIDE 
SELECT LIST OF ROSES. 
In the foregoing lists, we have embraced such only as we feel 
assured, with proper care and attention, will prove every way 
worthy of cultivation. We might readily have extended the same 
by hundreds, but as we propose to point out to the Amateur such

the multitude which compose the groups and subdivisions of the 
rose family, we have carefully selected the following choice varie- 
ties from those enumerated, which will be found to possess, in an 
eminent degree, the beauty, fragrance, and varied attractions 
of the rose, viz:
