KILLARNEY RUGOSA KOSE,S—Continued Conrad F. Meyer, vig. Flowers large, SVz to 4. inches across, bud well formed, color silvery- rose ; fragrant; very valuable on account of its hardiness and vigor. " A rose that seems to come midway between La France and Mme. G. Luizet, both in form and color, but with a growth almost as lusty as a Lilac, would, I think, be a true description of the above splendid variety. It is deliciously fragrant, and the foUage has that leathery- texture that enables it to withstand cutting winds and even slight frosts, so that instead of a plant marred by the climatic vicissitudes of the spring, we have one a picture of health. I could not name a better rose for a town ;—Garden., London, Eng. Madame G. Bruant, vig. In the bud state the flowers are long and pointed, when open, semi- double; pure white and fragrant, and produced freely in clusters at intervals throughout the summer; exceptionally hardy and vigorous; forms a handsome hnsh. Budded plants. Nova Zembla, vig. A sport of the Conrad F. Meyer, with large, well-shaped white flowers; a great acquisition. Rugosa alba, mod. A species from Japan. Single, pure white flowers of five petals; highly scented; a splendid shrub. Rugosa rubra, yi^. Another Japan variety. Flow- ers single, of a most beautiful bright rosy crim- son, succeeded by large berries of a rich rosy red color, and are a great addition to the orna- mental character of the plant. Makes a beauti- ful low hedge. HYBRID NOISETTE ROSES This is a group of considerable importance. They gener- ally flower in small clusters, and bloom freely throughout the year. The flowers are mostly white, and though small are generally of good form. They require a little more care in their protection than the Hybrid Perpetuals. Coquette
