Rosa Indica or (Bengal of the French) Chinese Ever-blooming Roses.
Bengal triumphant, La Superbe, Grande et Belle. This, like many fine roses, has its several names, but the former is the name under which I first knew it. It is a strong grower, with very large well-formed flowers of a rich purple crimson, which are extremely double, and always open well.

Rosa Indica or (Bengal of the French) Chinese Ever-blooming Roses.
Indica, or common daily, dark blush or rose colour- it is the prototype of the family, and is a free-growing and profuse blooming plant, and can withstand every variety of treatment. The flower is about three inches in diameter, and in our descriptions, where the word large is used, it signifies that the flower is larger than the present variety...

Climbing Roses that Bloom Only Once in the Season.
Grevillia, or seven sisters, is a very curious rose, flowered the first time with us in June, 1830. It is of the Multiflora variety, and is a native of China; growth free and luxuriant; leaves large and deeply nerved; flowers in large clusters, almost every eye of the wood of last year producing one cluster, having on it from eight to twenty roses, according to the state of the plant, each rose expanding differently in colour or shade. Many suppose that they expand all of the same colour, and change afterwards. This is not the case. We have seen them white, pink, red, purple, and various other shades when the bloom expanded; and on two clusters we have observed twenty-two distinct shades of colour. In fact, it is a complete non-descript, having roses single, semi-double, and double, large and small, and every colour between white and purple, forming, in every garden where it is planted, a wonder of the vegetable world.

Indica alba, white daily or sarmeteuse of some, pure white, perfectly double, free-growing, and profuse in flowering; it is much more tender than the former [Common Daily], but does tolerably well when protected during winter. In the Southern States, it is a great and growing favorite. Thousands of this rose have been grown and sold in Philadelphia within these five years.
