Rosarum monographia, or, A botanical history of roses : to which is added an appendix, for the use of cultivators, in which the most remarkable garden varieties are systematically arranged, with nineteen plates. ak, the present species has been selected byMr. Sabine and myself for that purpose. That it isessentially distinct from every other is very evidenteven from the incomplete account I have been able togive of it. I first saw it growing in Mr. Sabines gar-den at North Mimms late in the month of November;most of the leaves had fallen, but a few heps still re-mained on the bush. Its habit without foliage bearsmore resemblance to that of a stunted cinnamomea thanto any thing else. In character it approaches R. euro-Una, particularly in the remarkable convolution of sti-pulee. From this its numerous ramifications, weakprickles and short shining leaves sufficiently distinguishit. It moreover flowers in the spring and has nakedfruit with conniving sepals. I am assured by Mr. Sabine that this is the plantwhich was sent to France from a nursery here as a newAmerican Rose with black and yellow flowers, and no-ticed as such in Promvilles book.
