Rosa berberifolia Hardii. By Paul Hauschitz (Die Gart. 

 May 17, p. 273). — A beautiful climbing Rose, still comparatively 

 unknown to cultivation, is R. berberifolia Hardii, the result of a cross 

 between R. simplicifolia x R. clinophylla. The author ascribes 

 its scarcity to its somewhat delicate constitution. It has very fine 

 serrated, pretty, dark bluish-green leaves. The flowers appear in 

 bunches of three and four together on stalks from 15 to 20 cms. long, 

 and resemble those of Cistus formosus in their colour and texture. 

 For this reason it is often called the Cistus Rose. — G. R. 



Rosa foliolosa (Bot. Mag. tab. 8513). — Family Rosaceae, tribe 

 Roseae. North America. Shrub of dwarf habit, foot high, 



very few prickles Leaves 2-3 inches long ; leaflets 7-9, lanceolate. 

 Flowers 2-2 J inches across, crimson. — G. H. 



Rose 'Candeur Lyonnaise.' By D. Bois and G. T. Grignan 

 (Rev. Hort. p. 468, Oct. 16, 1913). — This rose is described as, without 

 doubt, the largest and finest of the white Roses which have 

 so far appeared either for glass or the open. It has received a gold 

 medal and other high awards. Raised by M. Croibier-Venissieux 

 (Rhone).— C. T. D.

' Maman Lyly ' is of moderate growth, healthy, and bears flesh- 

 coloured flowers with pink reflex, which are rather flat. ' Tito 

 Hekekyan ' is a strong grower, with sweet-scented copper-pink flowers. 

 ' Mme. Lucien Baltet ' is vigorous, and has flesh-coloured blooms with 

 golden centres suffused with carmine. 1 Jonkheer J. L. Mock ' and

 passing to pink at the edges.
