p. 72) Many delicate Teas and chinas, which will live only a year or two on Crimson Boursault and Celine, will thrive pretty well upon the Manetti; but they are much better worked upon the Rosa indica (common Monthly), or grown upon their own roots.

p. 73) Rosa indica, or Monthly, I have already noticed. This is suitable for delicate Teas, Chinas, &c.; and if they were more extensively cultivated on this or on their own roots, amateurs would not have so frequently to lament their losses.

The China blush rose, R. Indica (R. Chinensis of Roxburgh), Kut'h gulab, forms a pretty hedge, if carefully clipped, but is chiefly useful as a stock for grafting on. It has no odour.

Daily Blush is one of the oldest China Roses, but one of the very best. There can be nothing more perfect than its half-expanded bud, of a light crimson, inclining to blush. It commences blooming among the earliest, and, if the old seed-vessels are picked off, will continue to bloom abundantly through the summer and autumn, even after severe frosts. It is one of the hardiest of the class, and if left in this latitude unprotected during the winter, will lose no more wood than it will be necessary to cut in the spring. It grows freely, and making a stiff, upright bush, would be well adapted for a hedge - the winter performing the office of the shears. We recollect seeing at Genoa, in Italy, a beautiful hedge of this rose, which, even at that time, in mid-winter, had not lost all its foliage. We can imagine few things more beautiful than a well-cultivated hedge of this rose, with its smooth, glossy foliage well sprinkled with the beautiful ruby-tinted buds.
