Mais la plus curieuse de toutes ces roses est, sans contredit, Rosa centifolia cristata ou Chapeau de Napoléon. Elle doit son nom aux étranges protubérances des sépales, qui donnent à l a fleur une certaine ressemblance avec un tricorne. Hormis cette particularité , c'est un centfeuilles typique . Juste avant son épanouissement , la fleur apparaît , délicieusement rose , comme un bijou enchâssé dans un écrin de verdure. ......Else Thykier, Skorrebrovejen, 3720 Aakirkeby, Danmark

Moss and Provence Roses.
Their beautiful buds and delicious fragrance render these great favourites, and deservedly so.
Pruning.—These should be slightly pruned. Remove all old wood, thin out some of the past season's shoots where overcrowded, shorten the laterals of those remaining, and cut back the young growths to about six eyes. Prune in February or March.
Crested... Pale rose. Buds beautifully crested. Introduced 1827.

Cristata S. (see Plate 20). Large rose, exactly the shape of the old Cabbage Rose, very sweet. Pedicel and hip glandular, not mossy. Calyx glanded, fringed dense moss in tufts which give it its name. Large leaves upfolded, tips red. Downy below. Petiole with an upstanding line of glands above. Wood slightly red, many dark glands, a few large straight thorns. An interesting sport of the old Cabbage Rose, the curious sepals have given it in France the name of Chapeau de Napoleon after the famous three-cornered hat. It is not a true Moss, as the crest is limited to the margin of the calyx, and is an exaggerated development of the sepal margins.
