Text Appearing Before Image:
and Carnations were laden withflowers of great beauty, but my attention was specially drawnto the abundance of Roses ; few of course at this early seasonare of show quality, such sorts as Safrano, Souvenir dun Ami,Souvenir do David, and Lamarque, being, with the Red Bour-bons I mentioned before, the freest winter-bloomers ; but onenew kind, evidently a seedling from Souvenir dun Ami, butdwarfer in habit, deeper in colour, and more open in shape,seemed to mo of great excellence and size.
