favorite, Souvenir d'Un Ami, and a fine rose for bedding in 

 the open ground. Clotilde Soupert, said to be a hybrid 

 Polyantha, is, perhaps, the rose of most value on this side, out 

 of the many introductions of 1889. It is nearly the size of the 

 fine Hybrid Noisette, Boule de Neige, but differs from that 

 variety in being short-jointed and truly perpetual, as much so 

 as any of the common Chinas. It also promises to be hardy 

 in our northern climate, and if so it will be of great value. 

 Whether it is a Polyantha or a Hybrid Noisette matters little 

 if it continues to do as it has done the past summer. It was 

 raised by Soupert & Notting, Luxembourg, who declare it to 

 be a true descendant of the Japanese Fairy or Polyantha 

 Roses.
