The second is R. inodora often sold under the name R. pulverulanta (a name given by Baker, and not Marschall von Bieberstein's plant of that name).  The flowers are white and very beautiful, and the plants make a fairly compact bushes of some 2-ft. to 3-ft. high. Though it is apparently now known as R. inodora, the title is something of a misnomer, for if the leaves be crushed or rubbed at the back, the Sweet Briar perfume becomes very marked.
