ROSE SPORTS AND SEEDLINGS by "Wild Rose" .. "I once found in a friend's garden in the north, that very beautiful Sweet Briar sport Janet's Pride, but I never claimed any credit for the discovery; and when after a time I presented some plants of it to my good friend Mr. George Paul, who sent it out, I would not have my name in any way connected with it, as I was sure it would give a false impression to Rose growers--and yet I think there are few flowers which have gained greater popularity than this has done.

Uncommon Roses as standards. — I saw recently a number of Roses budded on the Brier about a yard high composed of varieties and species that, to say the least, one is usually accustomed to see grown in other forms.
Janet's Pride, white with crimson stripes is an attractive Sweet Brier very little known.

"Sweet Briars at Burford Lodge." -- "I lately saw a long line of Lord Penzance's Briars in Sir Trevor Lawrence's garden," remarks a correspondent, "the plants occupying a space against a wall, a position in which they grow and flower freely. A considerable range of colour was observed in the blossoms of these plants. Among them Janet's Pride was noticed, a variety exhibited by Messrs. Paul & Son, the Old Nurseries, Cheshunt, and said to have been found in an old rectory garden- a chance seedling probably. The Briars of Lord Penzance's raising are admirable acquisitions to all who possess a garden, and they should always find a place where the climactic conditions are favourable, the grateful fragrance of the foliage apart from the beauty of the bushes when smothered with blossoms sufficing to makes them favourites.
