The reader, curious in such matters, would, of course, like to have the names of these hypothetically blue roses, and here they are: Captain Ingram, rich purple; Celine Noiret, purple shaded with rose; Duhamel du Monceau, rich red shaded with violet; Elie Morel, rosy lilac; Exposition de Brie, crimson shaded with purple; Felix Genero, rose shaded with violet; Ferdinand de Lesseps, purple shaded violet; Gloire de Ducher, dark purple; James Veitch, deep violet shaded with carmine; La Fontaine, purplish crimson; and lastly, Unique, a lovely blue-tinted lilac Tea rose, which occasionally, when aided by warm, cloudy, damp weather, makes a near approach to the pure blue of the delphinium.
