NEW ROSES. 



By the Rev. H. J. Pemberton, M.A. 



[Read July 14, 1896.] 



How wonderful has been the development of the Rose from the 

 species with single flowers to the glorious florists' flowers of the 

 present day, and with what rapid strides has it advanced even 

 within the lifetime of several of our rosarians ! I have a book 

 which afforded me considerable assistance in the cultivation of 

 the Rose some twenty-two years ago, a book which was considered 

 to be well up to date. In it is found a list of roses for amateurs 

 possessing small gardens, the leading roses of the day, and 

 in this list are the following : — Hybrid Perpetuate : Alphonse 

 Damoizin, Charles Lefebvre, Charles Margottin, Comtesse Cecile 

 de Chabrilland, Duchesse de Cambaceres, Francois Lacharme, 

 General Jacqueminot, John Hopper, Jules Margottin, La Rhone, 

 Louise Darzens, Madame Charles Wood, Madame Rivers, 

 Madame Vidot, Mademoiselle Bonnaire, Prince Camille de 

 Rohan, Prince Leon, Professor Koch, Senateur Vaisse. Tea 

 scented: Adam, Devoniensis, Gloire de Dijon, La Boule d'Or, 

 Madame Falcot, Madame Willermoz, Marechal Niel, Noire,
