CLASS XIV. — MULTirLORA HOSES. Rosa Multijlora. 



The varieties of this Class are vigorous and rapid climbers, and their 

 flowers are remarkablj^ neat, pretty and interesting, and are produced 

 in large profuse clusters. The Isl Division comprises those with the 

 smallest dowers and diminutive foliage ; the 2d Division those with the 

 largest flowers and foliage— the latter are the most hardy and appear 

 to be nearly all varieties from the Greville. None of either division re- 

 quire protection in this latitude, unless in very exposed locations, and 

 then binding them well with straw will suflSce.
