R. ROXBURGHI—"'The Chestnut Rose.” 
Sites Nit) RODE (Chima) KR. Roxburghi Plena. .(1825.), 8- 10 feet. 
Probably the most unique rose in our gardens, and one of the most beauti- 
ful. Vigorous grower, with rich green foliage resembling the 
leaves of the locust tree, abundantly grown from the gray-green stalks. 
Ours is the double variety, about 2¥%2 inch blooms of a lovely but inde- 
scribable rose-pink, shading lighter to the edges. “They resemble the French 
artificial roses we used to wear on our straw hats,” says Mrs. Keays, in “Old 
Roses.’ Both buds and hips are so covered with bristles as to closely 
resemble a chestnut burr. 
With us, always in bloom; a truly remarkable rose. And please, dear 
customer, if it looks brown and shaggy to you on arrival, don't rush to 
report it “dead.” It isn't! 2:00

and again in fall, great panicles of 1’, white, single flowers—wonderful
