constitutionally robust: of its flowers it is unnecessary to speak;

of Munden,” and is, we think, destined to perpetuate the re¬ 
membrance of Rose growing at that place. The blooms from 
which the accompanying portrait was taken were exhibited at 
the July meeting of the Royal Botanic Society, where they 
received the principal prize offered for similar productions. — Ed.
