Some of them are quite black, others shaped like a ranunculus, and many of them highly odoriferous. The most remarkable only are here arranged under the species to which they are referable.

A modern invention, of Dutch origin, in the culture of roses, is that of forming standards, by budon stocks of any of the hardy woody growing sorts, as the dog rose, R. canina, or the tree rose, in the dog rose, R. canina, or the tree rose, ding R. villosa. They are budded at different distances from the ground, according to taste and the purposes in view, and form, after a few years, handsome round heads , which flower freely, and preserve the variety a longer time than in plants raised from cuttings or layers . They are particularly valuable for shrubberies and lawns, where the culture at the root required by dwarf roses could not be given, and if omitted would occasion the degeneracy of the variety.

New varieties of the rose are obtained from seed; but the usual mode of propagation is by layers. All will grow by cuttings, and some, as the sempervirens, freely; but that mode is seldom resorted to. For preserving delicate varieties, the best mode seems decidedly that of budding on hardier sorts.

No species of rose, wild or cultivated, thrives well in or very near large towns, on account of the smoke and confined air. The yellow and Austrian roses (R. lutea and R. bicolor) are difficult to flower in any situation, but seldom or never blow in the suburbs of London even the monthly rose does not thrive so well there as at some miles distance in the country. Roses are generally planted in the front of shrubberies, and with in borders in the front of shrubberies, and in borders; they are also planted by themselves in rose gardens or rosaries, in groups on lawn, either of common the rosaries, in groups on lawn, either with common edgings, or with edgings of wire, in imitation of basket-work. These last are called baskets of roses; the ground enclosed in the basketmargin is made convex, so as to present a greater surface to the eye, and increase the illusion; the shoots of the stronger sorts are layered or kept down by pegs till they strike roots ORDER III.

Under this treatment, the whole surface of the basket becomes, in two or three years, covered with rose-buds and leaves of one or of various sorts. Where one of the larger free-growing sorts is employed, as the moss, or any of the Provence varieties, one plant may be trained so as to cover a surface of many square yards. Where different sorts are introduced in the same basket, they should be as much as possible assimilated in size of leaves and flowers and habits of growth, and as different as possible in the colors of their flowers. By mixing small-flowered with large showy sorts, the beauty of the former is lost without adding to the effect of the latter. In rosaries, commonly, but one plant of a sort is introduced, and the varieties which most resemble each other are placed together, by which their distinctions are better seen. Particular compartments are often devoted to one species, as the Scotch, Chinese, yellow, burnet-leaved, &c. which has an excellent effect; sometimes a piece of rock-work in the centre is covered with the creeping roses, and on other occasions these are trained to trellis-work, which forms a fence or hedge of roses round the whole. In this hedge, standard roses are sometimes introduced at regular distances; a grove of standards is also frequently formed in the centre of the rosary, and sometimes they are introduced here and there in the beds. Standard roses, however, have certainly the best effect in flower borders, or when completely detached on a lawn: their sameness of form, and that form being compact and lumpish, prevents them from grouping well, either among themselves or with other objects. Their beauty consists in their singularity as rose plants, and in their flowers; and, therefore, to display these beauties to the best advantage, they require to be seen singly, or in succession. This is the case where they occur as single objects on a lawn, or in the centre, and here and 7494 Centifólia L.

In the gardens of the Grand Trianon, they are planted profusely in large masses, like plantations of trees and shrubs, and there much of their individual beauty is lost, and no good general effect produced. Most species of the rose, in their wild state, grow in sandy and rather poor soil, except such as are natives of woods, where the soil is richer, and comparatively moist. But all the cultivated roses, and especially the double-flowering kinds, require a rich loamy soil, inclining to clay rather than sand; and they require also, like most double flowers, plenty of moisture when in a growing state. To produce strong flowers, roses require some attention to pruning; old wood should be yearly cut out, and the young shoots thinned and shortened according to their strength, and whether number or magnitude of flowers be wanted. Those sorts which throw up numerous suckers should be taken up every three or four re reduced, and replanted; and most sorts, excepting the standards, will be improved by the practice, provided attention be paid to remove a part of the old soil, and replace it by new.

A very good time for performing the operation, is immediately after the bloom is over; cutting out old exhausted wood, shortening shoots which have flowered to a good bud accompanied with a healthy leaf, but leaving such shoots as are still in a growing state untouched till October. Where very large roses are wanted , all the buds but that on the extreme point of each shoot should be pinched off as soon as they make their appearance, and the plant liberally supplied with water. To should lessen evaporation, and keep up a constant moisture at the roots of their roses, the Paris gardeners generally with half-rotten stable-dung, or partially rotten leaves. The earliest flowering rose is the monthly, which, in mild seasons, and planted against a wall, will sometimes flower in the beginning of April; the roses next in succession are the cinnamon, which flowers in May; the damask in the end of May or beginning of June; the blush, York and Lancaster, Provins, and Dutch ICOSANDRIA POLYGYNIA.
