My Rose-Journal by Thomas Rivers....July 14th. This warm weather has brought many varieties of Rosa alba to an unusual degree of perfection; how perfect and delicate are La Séduisante and Madame Audot! how pearly the white of Princesse de Lamballe and Madame Legras! how brilliant Vicomte Schrymaker! and that delicate glowing Rose, Duc du Luxembourg; how very beautiful are its large globular flowers! Some old sorts that one had nearly forgotten have beckoned us in passing to give an admiring look, such as Montigny, Malvina, Royale rouge : these Roses have rarely been so perfect as they are to-day.
