One of the most valuable of garden roses. Varieties. There are numerous varieties and hybrids of this beautiful rose. The following are quite distinct ; and may each be considered the type of a long list of subvarieties: — St R. !. 2 yhisetliknii Ser. in Dec. Prod.'ii. p. 600., Don's Mill. ii. p. 581.; Jig. 609. above. — Stem firm, and, as well as the branches, prickl}'. Stipules nearly entire. Flowers panicled, very numerous, semi- double, pale red. Styles exserted. Raised in North A merica, from an accidental cross between E. indica and R. moschilta, and the plants being sold to Philip Noisette, his name was given to this variety. It was first brought to England by Mr. Fraser. This well-known and very beautiful rose is almost invaluable in a shrubbery, from its free and vigorous growth, and the profusion of its flowers, which are continually being produced during the whole summer. Numerous subvarieties have been raised of the Noisette rose, some of the most distinct of which are, the R. i. N. purpurea of Redoute, which has red flowers ; R. i. N. nivea, the Aim^ ViLert of the French imrseries, which has double white flowers ; R. i. iV. Smfthzi, Smith's yellow Noisette rose, the flowers of which are very double, of a deeper yellow than the double yellow China rose (R. i. ochroleiica), and disposed in clustered corymbs of from 10 to 22, and are highly fragrant. s R. i 3 odnratissima Lindl.
