This is a very beautiful variety â - tlie petals are white, with a most delicate, yet rich, tinge of blush. 1 jc R. VI. 4 nepalensis Lindl. (Bot. Reg., t. 829. ; and our Jig. 625.) differs from the species in having longer and acuminated sepals. Raised at Claremont, from Nepal seed, in 1824 OtJier Vaiieties. In Rivers's Abridged List of Roses, published in 1840, the kinds recommended are, the Fringed, Princesse de Nassau, and Tea- scented ; the latter a hybrid, with large flowers of a pure white, with a peculiar habit and perfume. The branches of the musk rose are generally too weak to support, without props, its large bunches of flowers, which are produced in an umbcl-lifce manner at their extremities; and hence the plants require very little pruning. Being rather tender, it does best against a wall. The musky odour is very perceptible, even at some distance from the plant, particularly in the eve- ning ; and this musk gives the peculiar odour to the 6M. B.,..â.i,. Persian attar of roscs. â D.
