On Roses.
Lord Penzance Hybrid Sweet Briars.
Raised by Lord Penzance from Sweet Briars, hybridised and selected. The flowers are semi-double, and of various pretty shades, with the sweet-scented foliage of the Sweet Briar. They have of late years become very popular, alike for their beautiful flowers, handsome berries, and for their value for clumps, arches, hedges, and nearly all other purposes, as they can be employed with a certainty of their hardiness and success. Amongst the score or so varieties, the following are specially pretty and useful:
Lucy Ashton, white, tinged with pink
All of the above are worthy of a place in every garden.

Lord Penzance's Hybrid Sweet Briars
A New Selection of Roses Which Will Be An Exceedingly Valuable Addition to Our List of Decorative Varieties.
Every one loves the old scented Sweet Briar Rose, the Eglantine of poetry. It was a happy thought that induced the Rt. Hon. Lord Penzance of England to devote his leisure to a blending of this old favorite with the modern garden and other roses by a careful series of crossings and hybridizings. The result attained is wonderful, and these new Hybrid Sweet Briars, which we have the pleasure of offering to our customers, cannot fail to give satisfaction, as they are charming garden plants of exceptional beauty, fragrance, and hardiness. They certainly are a great acquisition. Never perhaps since the introduction of the Hybrid Perpetual Section has there been such a decided break away from the ordinary Roses in cultivation as the Hybrids now offered.
The plants are very hardy, and are exceptionally robust, vigorous growers. They are quite astonishing in this respect, bushes four or five years old throwing up shoots ten, twelve, and even fifteen feet high. These when covered with the flowers have a most gorgeous effect, the flowers, which are single, and of the most beautiful tints, being produced in lavish profusion. The foliage, like the common Sweet Briar, is deliciously scented.
The plants should be given a position where they can develop freely. They should not be pruned to any extent, but should be allowed to assume a natural growth. We offer nine of the finest Hybrids, as follows:

Lord Penzance's Sweet Briars.
These wonderful single roses, raised by Lord Penzance, have already obtained a world-wide reputation, and are very popular. Like their parent (sweet briar) both foliage and flower are deliciously fragrant, they are all strong growers, free bloomers, and perfectly hardy. The flowers are single, but lasting. Extra strong plants, 4 to 6 feet high, 2/— each. These require no pruning, and make impenetrable hedges of great beauty.
Lucy Ashton (Keynes & Co., 1894), pretty white blooms with pink edges; wonderfully free flowering; free grower, with erect shoots and foliage as sweet as the old Sweet Briar.
