habit is exaggerated. In Gartenflora, VoL XIV., 21, a R. “ Lindleyi,” raised 
by Stanwick, is mentioned, which seems to be a dwarf type of R. Dalhousi^e. 
In two different places double flowers* of R. Dalhousi^ have been produced. 
I have not seen them, but they are much praised, and indicate the tendency of 
the species towards variation. Mr. William Bull and Messrs. Henderson have 
some interesting seedlings. The best grown plant of the species known to me in 
the neighbourhood of London is now about to bloom in the Nursery of the 
Messrs. Jackson, of Kingston ; but I shall be very glad to hear of other fine 
specimens, and any peculiarities connected with them.
