. The American florist : a weekly journal for the trade. Floriculture; Florists. 276 The American Florist. Aug. 2-], European Horticulture. FROM THE l-UliNC'II TKAUK TArEUS. New English roses of 3010, intro- duced by Wm. Paul & Son, comprise : Alice Cory-Wrifflit (Hybrid tea).— Flowers of a pretty deep pink color, much resembling Mme. Caroline Te- Stout. but differing in their larger size and greater doubleness. Vigorous and free. Elsie (llybrid AVichuraiana.) — Tender flesh pink, center a little deeper; perfect form and very lasting; a good acquisition among climbing roses. Ju- liet (Hybrid briar).—Very pretty nov- elty blooming in autumn as well as summer. Interior of rose a fine red changing to pink as it opens, outside old gold; the flowers are very large and exquisitely fragrant. It has been much admired at the shows. Portia (Hybrid tea).—The flowers are large, double, of a fine pink at the base of the petals, center of rose yellow. Fine for pot culture and exhibition. The international rose meeting at Bagatelle, opened by the city of Paris June 18, was largely attended by rose growers from all countries. The jury was to examine the roses introduced in 1009, already noted in that year, and to judge them definitely after the two years of comparative culture, also the roses presented in 1910, for a first classification. None of the roses of 1909 was considered worthy of the Bagatelle gold medal, but certificates were awarded to the most remarkable in the following order: Commander Jules Gravereaux (Hy- brid remontant).—Cross of Frau Carl Druschki and Liberty. Strong, straight branches, thorns medium. Foliage fine deep green, stem strong and stiff. Flower very large, semi-double, vel- vety fiery red, lightly shaded maroon on the inside. The broad petals are deeply and irregularly toothed, which give the flower a peculiar appearance. Received a silver medal from the As- sociation Lyonnaise in 1908, certificate of merit and gold medal at the Lyons expo
