ROSA Indica rubra, Red Indian Rose The Indica rubra is regarded as the finest of the ever-blooming China Roses. By some it is thought to be a distinct species, from the dark colour and smaller size of its foliage : but this is most likely the effect of its recent importation ; and, when it becomes more familiarised to our climate, may in part if not totally disappear. From the book Roses, or, A monograph of the genus Rosa : containing coloured figures of all the known species and beautiful varieties, drawn, engraved, described, and coloured, from living plants. by Andrews, Henry Charles, Publi
