THE BOOK OF THE ROSE 



CHAP. 



Of Moss Roses, the best for wear are the common 

 Moss, which is pink, and Blanche Moreau, which is 

 white. These are summer blooming only, the per- 

 petual forms of the Moss Rose being slightly inferior. 



For very delicate, miniature, and artistic button- 

 holes the Polyanthas are unrivalled. 



Six Polyanthas.

In giving a selection of Roses suitable for pot culture 

 and forcing (see Chap. X.), it should be noticed that 

 " good under glass," or " a good pot Rose," as a cata- 

 logue description may sometimes mean simply that the 

 variety will not do out of doors, and it must not 

 necessarily be inferred that it is better for that purpose 

 than others which also do well in the open air.
