unusually glandular, though less so than when I first gathered it 
some years ago, when it was so glandular as to have a strong sweet- 
briar odour, and adhered to the paper when dried. I cannot get 
a varietal name to fit it. — A. H. Wolley-Dod. “ The plant which 
we collected in the same locality in 1878, and of which Prof. 
Crepin wrote, ‘ Varidte du R. iomentosa^ voisin au R. cuspidat aides, 
Cre'p.” — H. and J. Groves. “ Var. subglobosa, Sm.” — E. F. 
Linton. 
R, verticillacantha, Merat. Bradley Valley, Cheshire, 22nd 
July 1905. The glandular setse appear only on some of the 
peduncles, but are fairly plentiful on those on which they do occur. 
Perhaps the name should be R. Blondeana, Rip., as glands are 
fairly plentiful on the midrib beneath, but I have not learnt to 
recognize that species. — A. H. Wolley-Dod. “ A very puzzling 
rose, agreeing with our verticillaca?itha in most respects, but with 
the long peduncle and columnar style of the R. stylosa group. 
These two characters seem to me to remove it from R. canina, 
and yet it agrees with no R. siylosa var. known to me. Can it 
be a hybrid between R. dumalis, for instance, and R. systyla — 
an origin which has been suggested for a Dorset rose found by 
the Rev. R. P. Murray, and to which M. Crepin gave a qualified 
assent ? The two plants are much alike though not identical. 
Major Dod’s Rose is worth further study, e.g. as to whether it 
matures perfect fruit.” — E. F. Linton. “ My specimen has quite 
glabrous (not glandular-bristly) peduncles, and I should have 
thought it good dunialis.^' — Edw. S. Marshall. 
Rosa andegavensis. Bast. Lane near Edge Green, Cheshire, 
15th July 1905. A glaucous plant, recalling, when growing, R. 
arvensis, but it has nothing really in common with that species. 
Flowers almost white, fruit urceolate-globose. I give the group- 
name which M. Crepin gave to it for me three or four years ago, 
though it is not like other plants I have similarly named, but 
Crepin has so labelled others with leaves quite as hairy beneath. 
It seems to me to have affinities with R. obtusifolia, Desv. — 
A. H. Wolley-Dod. “ An untypical rose, hardly andegavensis 
because of the hairy leaf-nerves, and there are but few glands 
on the peduncle : perhaps a variation of the group R. Deseglisei, 
Bor.” — G. C. Druce. 
R. andegavensis, Bast. Lane near Edge Green, Cheshire, 25th 
July 1905. — A. H. Wolley-Dod. “I do not think it sufficiently 
glandular for that species. There are merely a few glands on 
some of the peduncles, whereas the plant, as I have it from 
Mr. J. G. Baker, has truly aciculate peduncles. I should have 
called this a form of R, lutetianaP — J. E. Bagnall.
