Class III.— Noisette or Oliampiiey Roses. 



(EOSA MOSCHATA HyBEIDA.) 



The Noisette Eose is a product of America, and obtains its name from Phillippe 

 Noisette, a florist of Charleston, South Carolina. 



John Champney, of Charleston, from the seed of the White Musk Eose, fertilized by 

 the Blush China, raised a variety which was called Champney's Pink Cluster. A few 

 years after this, Phillippe Noisette, from the seed of Champney's Pink Cluster, raised 

 the Blush Noisette, and this he sent to his brother, Louis Noisette, of Paris, under the 

 name of Noisette Eose. The true name, therefore, for this class, should be the Champ- 

 ney, but the change cannot now be made. 



This group is naturally of vigorous growth, nearly hardy, and produces large clusters 

 of flowers ; but, through hybridization with the Tea section,the original characteristics 

 have, in part, disappeared. The varieties now generally grown are less hardy, and 

 have partially lost the clustering tendency ; but the flowers have much more substance 

 and are far more beautiful. As they now exist, they are valuable as Sarmentous or 

 Pillar Eoses in sheltered positions, and particularly so under glass^ Nothing can be 

 flner than a wall covered with Lamarque or Cloth of Gold. The leaflets are five to 

 seven in number. 



All on their own roots except a few Airnee Vibert. 



Aimee Vibert Seandens. (Curtis, 1841.) Free. Pure white, small sized 

 double flowers ; produced in large clusters ; seven leaflets ; nearly hardy. Identical 

 with the old variety, of which it is a sport, except that it is a stronger grower.

 Eaised from Solfaterre, fertilized by Safrano ; creamy yellow; with a salmon tinge. 



Caroline Marniesse. (Roeser, 1848.) Free. Creamy white, small and full; 

 seven leaflets ; nearly hardy ; flowers resemble those of Felicite Perpetuee.

 the centre ; the hai'diest of the Tea-scented section. 



Claire Carnot. (Guillot-fils, 1873.) Fi-ee. Pale yellow, somewhat like Celine 

 Forestier, but more fragrant.
