Precocihns Glaoses.

From the Gardeners Chronicle.
A new race of roses bas been introduced
by some Paris growers. They belong to the
Polyantha group-that is to say, they bear
their flowers in tr9sses The new roses
have the advantage. over the others of be-
ing perpetual" and consequently they
flower continuously all through the sum
mer. This advan age they owe to their
ORIGIN natural cross (croisement natureD,
observed in the Lyons Gardens between
the flowers of the first specimens of Poly
antha introduced from Japan, and some
hybrid perpetual roses. By repeated and
careful selections a new race of roses has
been produced, which, like ANNALS, germin-
ate, flower and produce seeds in less than
a year. The term dwarf is justified by
the height. which in adult plants is only
about twenty inches. The flowers are sin
gle, semi double, or double, in almost equal
proportions, and present almost all the
variations of color observed in cultivated
roses Flowering commences in the first
year, and even a few months after sowing.
This precocity is one of the most remark
able and interesting features of this new
type.
