into the ground, so that the points of the shoots furnished with buds appear only above the soil, wiiich is 
sometimes covered with moss or small shells. Under this treatment, the whole surface of the basket becomes, 
in two or three years, covered with rose-buds and leaves of one or of various sorts. Where one of the larger 
free-growing sorts is employed, as the moss, or any of the Provence varieties, one plant may be trained so 
as to cover a surface of many square yards. Where different sorts are introduced in the same basket, they 
should be as much as possible assimilated in size of leaves and flowers and habits of growth, and as riif. 
ferent as possible in the colors of their flowers. By mixing small-flowered with large showy sorts, the beauty 
of the former is lost without adding to the effect of the latter. 
In rosaries, commonly, but one plant of a sort is introduced, and the varieties which most resemble each 
other are placed together, by which their distinctions are better seen. Particular compartments are often 
devoted to one species, as the Scotch, Chinese, yellow, burnet-leaved, &c. which has an excellent effect ; some- 
times a piece of rock-work in the centre is covered with the creeping roses, and on other occasions these are 
trained to trellis-work, which forms a fence or hedge of roses round the whole. In this hedge, standard roses 
are sometimes introduced at regular distances; a grove of standards is also frequently forincil in tiie centre of 
the rosary, and sometimes they are introduced here and there in tiie beds. 
Standard roses, however, have certainly tlie best efffect in flower borders, or when completely detached on a 
lawn : their sameness of form, and that form being compact and lumjjish, prevents them from groiipiiig well, 
either among themselves or with other objects. Their beauty consists in their singularity as rose plants, and 
in their flowers ; and, therefore, to display these beauties to the best advantage, they require to be seen singly, 
or in succession. This is the case where they occur as single objects on a lawn, or in the centre, and here and
