Auguste Mie, clear waxy rose, cupped petals.
Baronne Hallez, dark purple crimson, fine form.
Baronne Prevost, rose color, very large.
Caroline de Sansal, large, rosy blush, pink centre, of remarkably strong
growth.
Duchesse de Montpensier, pale satiny rose, very fragrant.
Giant of the Battle, nearly bright scarlet. Is this not the rose of the
group? Everyone of your readers that wishes a rose bush that is perfectly
hardy, bright in color, and constant in bloom may chose this subject.
Julie de Krudner, a new rose, nearly white, very double, and agreeably
fragrant.
La Reine. I hesitate about this though a most superb flower; it has a
paucity of bloom not altogether to my fancy; the color too is undecided
being a rosy lilac, but extremely large and luxuriant in growth.
Lion des Combats, reddish crimson, shaded with scarlet, large, full, and
fragrant.
Louise Le Clerc, delicate blush, perfect form, very profuse and fragrant.
Madam Laffay, purplish lilac, inclining to crimson, very full regular
flower, plant of strong growth.
Madam Rives, quite a new variety, of a pale flesh or silvery blush color,
of great substance, very distinct and perfectly formed.
Marquis Boccella, pale blush, dwarf habit, a constant bloomer, very
distinct.
Pius 9th, crimson purple, very large, full and perfect, a profuse bloomer
of strong growth.
Patenotte, pale rose, very exquisite form, fragrant and profuse, quite a
new variety.
Queen Victoria, (Paul’s) blush white, shaded with pink or peach blossom
color, large, very full, and distinct from any other variety, quite new,
very desirable.
Robin Hood, bright carmine, beautifully globular, and a rampant grower.
William Griffith, satiny rose, distinct color, a large bold petaled
flower, quite new, and will rank amongst the best.
William Jesse, a favorite variety of a rosy crimson color, edged with
lilac, very large, full, and constant.
Yolande d’Arragon, pale rose, producing its flowers in clusters the whole
season, a strong grower. Sydonie, a newer variety, is very like this, and
I am doubtful if it is any improvement upon it, unless to a very critical
observer.
