The first [variety of R. macrophylla] was reared from seed coming from Se Tchuen. It is a bush with few, strong, diffuse branches, covered all over with enormous spines, very close together, sometimes an inch long, and shaped like a blade, bearing a small point in the middle. The flowers are rather large and pink. (Figs. 135, 136.)
