Let me first bring under notice the novelties of 1861-62, of which we have some actual knowledge; and I state fearlessly, at the outset, that this was the richest freight of new Roses that ever reached our shores in a single year. I find, on reference to my note-book, that I bought sixty-two new kinds that year, fifty-six of which bloomed with me, and twenty-four of these I have marked as decided acquisitions.
Duc de Rohan is a large and very bright vermilion-coloured Rose, full, and of globular form, of vigorous growth and handsome foliage.
