vigorous and rapid grower ; and trails gracefully 

 over whatever it may be placed against. This rose 

 is interesting from the fact that it is the variety 

 yet growing at Mount Vernon, and which our first 

 President named for his mother. Aside from this, 

 however, it is really a very valuable rose, and will 

 please every one with its old-fa <hioned charms.

HYBRID PERPETUAL. 



These have very large blooms, are of great bril- 

 liancy and variety of color, with rich fragrance, 

 entirely hardy, although a slight protection in ex- 

 posed situations is desirable; flower with great 

 profusion in June and again more moderately in 

 the autumn, but are not perpetual, except in a few 

 instances. It is a good plan to cut them back quite 

 closely in the spring, when they will send up new 

 vigorous shoots that will give an abundance of 

 fine bloom.
