New Roses.—Messrs. Pentland of Baltimore, and Ward of Washington, D. C, have raised some very beautiful seedling roses, which they intend to offer for sale soon.
Mr. Ward's roses are named America and Cinderella...
The other is a Noisette rose, which he calls the Cinderella, or the Fairy Climber, and describes thus: " A large, perfectly full, exceedingly fragrant Noisette rose, of salmon-pink color, deepening towards the centre of the rose, blooming freely throughout the rose season. Its fragrance is similar, and fully equal, to that of the justly celebrated rose Devoniensis. The flower is distinct, and the habit of growth remarkably so. The foliage is very small, and the shoots are peculiarly slender, and, having a rapid climbing growth, they may be trained with ease in any desired shape, either in pots or the open ground. It is perfectly hardy here, having withstood, without the least injury, the rigorous winters of 1855-6 and 1856-7. As the flower buds are about to expand, they present a curious disproportion to the slender foot-stalks and branches, and their warm tints and delicious odor, together with the fairy-like growth, combine to render it a most fascinating acquisition to the rose garden."
Testimonials from John Saul, Wm. Cammack and others pronounce both these roses fine acquisitions. They were obtained from seeds by our correspondent, Dr. C. G. Page, whose articles on the rose have no doubt given so much information on this lovely flower: and it is only necessary for us to say that Dr. Page knows what a good rose is, and would not desire to be known as the originator of an inferior variety. It is gratifying to see that our amateurs are beginning to do what we are sure they are able to, produce as fine roses as the French cultivators, who have so long occupied the field, and supplied the world with roses of the most beautiful description.
