FROM TITE HKITISH TRADE P.\PERS. .V Oooi) ItosK Sport.—It sometimes liappeiis that a rose sport is more beauti- ful than the parent variety, aud I thinl; this is so in the ease of Rosslyn. It is a sport of Suzanne Marie Hodoeanaelii. whir-li, as everyone Isuows. is a lieautifiil glowing rosy cerise, but tlic sport is a eharming rich salmon pink. It is a par- ticniarly brilliant color that appeals to everyone by reason of its clearness. Both of these roses should be grown, as. al- though scentless, they are very free flow- ering, and possess the even, regular growth of the Victor Verdier race. The form of the flower has not been changed in the sport. It is just the same charm- ing globular shape that has helped the exhibitor to win many prizes. There are two other sports from the old rose named above. These are Muriel and JIaric Cor- elli, but I think Rosslyn is the liest of the three. Suzanne M. Rodocauachi makes a fine pot rose, yielding grand flowers of massive size and fairly long stems if pruned back hard. There is a climbing sport of this old variety which would make a useful pillar rose. Most of the climbing sports of hybrid perpet- ual roses are useful when grown in this form, for they are not really climbing, the difference merely being a somewhat extra vigor of the shoots.
