THE FLORIST AND POMOLOGIST. 
[ October, 
Mouton is a very large, full, and finely-formed globular flower, of a bright rose- 
colour, the reverse of the petals silvery. Arthur Oger is one of those deep velvety 
purplish-crimson roses, in the Gloire de Ducher style ; the flowers are very large 
and full. Bernard Verlot is something in the way of Lord Eaglan, the flowers 
being a scarlety-crimson, shaded with violet-purple, but the form is more globular. 
Casimir Perrier has dark ruby-red flowers, shading to light red, and possesses the 
grand quality of blooming constantly. Comtesse de Rocquigny is a pretty and 
free-growing rose; flowers white, tinted with salmon, not large, but of perfect 
globular form. Comtesse de Serenyi bloomed grandly here under glass, its large 
globular flowers, pink shaded with rose, attracting general attention. Gonsoli 
Gaelano is distinct and pleasing ; the flowers are glossy white, slightly tinted, 
large and full. Hippolyte Jamain is good; the flowers are bright rose, shaded 
with carmine, large, full, and globular. E. Y. Teas is a large rose, the colour 
deep cerise-red, bright and striking ; the flowers are globular, full, and well 
formed. La Bosiere is also a large, full, and well-formed flower, amaranth, shaded 
with bluish-black. La Souveraine is a fine bold flower, much in the way of 
Madame Clemence Joigneaux, but more double. Madame Lefebre de St. Ouen 
has bright cerise-red flowers, large, full, free, and sweet. Madame Pougier is a large 
full rose of cupped form ; the colour is glossy rose. Mdlle. Claire Matthieu is a 
rose-coloured flower, promising to be a free and showy garden rose. Marie Cordier 
is a large well-formed flower; colour deep carmine, illuminated with fiery red. 
Mariette Biolly is a good garden rose, fresh in colour, large and full. May 
Turner is a very large rose, full, and of good form ; the colour is salmon-rose. 
Princess Antoinette Strozzio has bright rose-coloured flowers, which are large, full, 
and well formed. In Souvenir de Mons. Fontaine the flowers are large and 
full, bright red, the base of the petals shaded. Souvenir du Baron de Semur is a 
fine colour, velvety-purple shaded with fiery red and black ; the growth is not 
vigorous here. Villaret de Joyeuse stands well among the novelties of this year ; 
the flowers are rose shaded, large, full, and finely formed. There is one Perpetual 
Moss —Soupert et Notting —a bright rose-coloured flower of the size and shape of 
the old Cabbage Rose, bearing more moss than some of its congeners. 
There are also some Tea-scented Roses with which I am more than satisfied. 
Aline Sisley is a full well-formed violet-red rose, a colour new and much wanted in 
this section. Comte de Sembui produces coppery-salmon flowers, which are large, 
full, and finely formed. Jean Ducher is salmon-yellow, the interior of the 
flower shaded with peach-colour; this is a large, full, and free-flowering globular 
rose. Madame Bonnet Eymard is white, with yellowish centre, not large, but 
full, and very free. Madame Devoncourt produces nicely-formed flowers, of a 
pale straw-colour. Madame Therese Genevay has flowers of a rosy-peach colour, 
large, full, cupped, and free. Marie Guillot , as a white rose, slightly tinged with 
yellow, promises well; it is large, full, of good form, hardy, and free. Marie 
Opoix is another white, with yellowish centre, sometimes tinted with pink ; also 
of good form. Perle des Jardins flowered finely here; the colour is canary-yellow;
