Some Beautiful Monthly Roses.
Aurore is a charming Rose, small, but of that lovely terracotta and orange one admires so much.

Some Novelties of Merit.
Avoca is a crimson-scarlet, a colour even now very scarce in this group. I expect great things from this Rose. It is a very vigorous grower, and specially good as a cut-back. Probably the best way to grow it will be to tie it to a pole and treat it as a pillar.

Roses Bardou Job and Gloire des Rosomanes. — Among many autumn Roses now flowering these two are conspicuous alike in profusion and brilliance. The cooler days of autumn are better suited to them, and their semi-double flowers last longer at this season. Here, indeed, are two grand Roses wherewith to enliven and put a little colour into the flowerless shrubberies. They only want to be treated as shrubs and allowed to have their own way.

Baronin Armgard von Biel is a fine Rose. Its petals are very evenly arranged, and of quite a waxy nature. The colouring reminds one of La France when seen in its freshest condition.

Correspondence.
[reply to X.Y.Z., Cheshire] Hedge of Roses by croquet-lawn. – China Roses would be excellent for your hedge. Plant either all one sort or several. The following are all good: Armosa, Fellenberg, Mme. Laurette Messimy, Jean Bach Sisley, Common Blush, Queen Mab, Comtesse de Cayla, Fabvier, Baronne Piston de St. Cyr. Polyantha Roses also make beautiful hedges; sorts such as Perle d'Or, Katherina Zeimet, Aschenbrodel, Cecile Brunner are good, but the Chinas would be best. Other good Roses for the purpose are: Perpetual Thalia, Gloire des Rosomanes, Alister Stella Gray, and Gruss an Teplitz; but these would grow some 4 feet to 5 feet in height, whereas the Chinas would be about 3 feet.

In Baron Piston de St. Cyr the colour is of the faintest blush, and it has fine upstanding flowers of medium size and fairly full.

Bertha Kleman is another of this [G. Nabonnand] tribe, having large, salmon-flesh flowers, tinted with sulphur-yellow.

Bertha Kleman, introduced in 1906, was raised by crossing Safrano with G. Nabonnand. It partakes largely of the character of the latter, but the blossoms have a sulphur-yellow tinting. The buds are long and the petals of the open flowers large and handsome. I consider it a most promising novelty.

Betty must become a general favourite. If it were only a single Rose, I would still commend it for its exquisite colour tints and the lovely long buds. Perhaps some may say it is a little better than a single; anyhow, it has great charms, and is a splendid grower.

BETTY BERKELEY is of a glorious deep red, verging on crimson-scarlet. It is very near to the China Teas—in fact, belongs more to this group than to the true Teas, whereas a Rose that is placed with the Chinas should certainly be among the Teas, and that one is.
