Hornsey Gardeners' Mutual Instruction Dec. 7. —The members of this Society assembled at the Infant School Room, Hornsey, to hear a lecture by Mr. Shirley Hibberd, of Stoke Newington, on the " History and Cultivation of the Rose.” The chair was occupied by Robert Richmond, Esq., supported by many of the neighbouring gentry. Mr. Hibberd briefly sketched the history of the Rose from the earliest times to the pence of 1815, when, he said, the first of the great French Rose gardens was laid out by M. Vibert, and the improvement of the Rose as a florist’s flower commenced in earnest. The great majority of show varieties had been raised in France during the past 46 years by MM. Vibert, Laffay, Hardy, Deprez, Prevost, Lacharme, Margottin, Guillot, Granger, and a few others, professional and amateur growers. The lecturer enumerated the best Roses raised by each, and gave a few historical inemoranda of such Roses as Aimée Vibert, Jules Margottin, Géant des Batailles, Great Western, and others, tracing them to their parentage, and indicating also the varieties which had proceeded from them.
