Notonly is Euphorbia Eustacei different from anyBritish or European species in appearance, butalso in being unisexual, one plant being male,another female. N. E. Brown. THE ROSARY. NEW ROSES.(Continued from p. 301.) These are Roses of the years 1910, 1911, and1912 which I happen to have grown in my owngarden (see p. 301). Geoffrey Henslow (, A. Dickson, 1912).—This Rose is not to be confused with Turnerscrimson sport from Mme. Victor Verdier of thesame name, which is a Hybrid Perpetual. of this name, which I am now dealingwith, has a wonderfully bright colour of orangecrimson. My single plant did not flower freelyin the early summer, and later it has had nochance of doing so as the stems have been usedfor buds; but this is not necessarily to be taken.

The shape of theflower is of the globular type, and the foliagerather light green in shade.

I think theflowers are larger and looser than those ofthe latter Rose, but not so freely pro-duced, and though Arends often looks asif it would make a good exhibition flower, itseldom seems to do so. It makes huge autumnalshoots, and being so very strong those in ableak exposed situation might prefer it to Eliza-beth, but in most cases the freer flowering of thelatter should give it the preference.
