NEW ROSES. 
Sent out nr R. MACK & SON. 
n.i>. SIR ROWLAND HILL— This magnificent new seedling Rose is of a rich deep 
port wine colour, shaded with blackish maroon, changing to a bright ruby-claret. I he flowers arc 
very large, full and well built, each petal, which is of great substance, standing out conspicuously ; 
coHstfint and very sweet scented. This Hose is a fine autumnal bloomer, and a splendid exhibition 
variety ; the foliage is large and massive, and the growth very vigorous. We believe Sir Rowland 
Hill to be the darkest Rose ever yet raised. Awarded the National Rose Society’s Gold Medal, at 
Edinburgh. 
II. p. DUCHESS OP LEEDS— A new seedling Rose, raised from Jm France, but many shades 
deeper in colour, which is on the reverse side of the petals, rendering it a very pleasing and attractive 
variety. The habit and foliage are similar to those of the parent, but it is much more profuse in its 
blooniiug qualities. The buds when first opening are long, pointed, and exquisitely shaped. The 
Duchess of Leeds is one of the best garden Roses ever raised in its line of colour, and often produces 
flowers fit for exhibition. Awarded the National Rose Society’s Gold Medal, at Edinburgh.
