Rosa Banksiæ Grandiflora.
The large-flowered Banksian Rose is one of the three kinds in general cultivation that is most unwilling to flower in England.  The illustration shows it blooming freely in a garden in France, and illustrates the beauty of Roses grown on a series of arches over a path.
For the same effect or one of even fuller bloom in England, it would be better to use such Roses as Climbing Aimée Vibert or Mme. Alfred Carrière.

The Banksias, or Lady Banks roses, are not much spoken of in any Northern works or catalogues; being too delicate for any but Southern climates. With us they form, during their season of blooming, the most attractive objects on the grounds; and from their graceful, weeping habit, and rich evergreen foliage, are at all times highly ornamental. [...] We have recently added to this group four new varieties, which are universally pronounced to be great acquisitions. These all resemble the old ones in growth and foliage.
*424. Alba Grandiflora is a great improvement upon No. 421 [the Double White Banksia]. The individual rose-blooms are of the same size and color, and with the same fragrance; but are much more perfect in form, and borne in vast trusses, resembling the bloom of the snow-ball.
