TEA-SCENTED & NOISETTE 
ROSES. 
Tea-Scented Roses (R. indicata odorata). — Tea Roses are an important 
class, and justly admired for their delicious fragrance and delicate tints of 
colour. For planting out in Conservatories, for forcing, or for pot culture 
under glass, they are unequalled, and with good cultivation a plentiful supply 
of flowers may be had throughout the season. To be successfully grown 
out of doors they must be planted in the warmest and sunniest parts of the 
garden, in a well-drained, light, rich soil, and given an abundant supply of 
water during the hot weather, and slightly protected from frost in severe 
Winter with fern, fir, or furze branches. A sure and safe plan of wintering 
1 eas outdoors is to earth up the plants like celery to about 9 inches high, 
removing the soil in April, and pruning well back. Teas generally should 
not be pruned very closely, but weak or unripened wood ought to be cut out 
entirely. 
Noisette Roses (R. inoschata Noisettiana). — The Noisettes are a class of 
Roses flowering mostly in clusters throughout the Summer and Autumn 
and are generally very free bloomers. Many make fine Pillar Roses. In 
pruning them the old wood should be thinned out, and the new wood left 
nearly full length. The vigorous growers are well adapted for Climbing, 
1 ’illar, or Weeping Roses, flowering freely late in the year. This section,’ 
like the leas, is well adapted for pot culture, also for outdoor cultivation in 
favourable situations.
