The "Bourbon" has given us darker and brighter flowers, both of which were much wanted. Apolline, Aurore de Guide, Jury, Madame Cousin, Madame Helfenbein, Prince Albert (Paul's), Reveil, Scipio, Sir J. Paxton, Souvenir d'un frère, and Vorace, are the best of the numerous kinds recently added, and often continue flowering till the blossoms are destroyed by frost.
