Charles Verdier.
1.  Alpaide de Rotalier (Campy), transparent satin rose.
2.  Alphonse Belin (Gautreau), clear brilliant red.
3.  Joseph Durand (Ledéchaux), slaty, shaded red.
4.  Triomphe de Villecresnes (Ledéchaux), clear vivid red.
5.  Leopold Roi des Belges, clear velvety red.
Of these, none of which were raised by Mons. Verdier, 1 obtained a prize at the Floral Committee (Comité de Floriculture) of the Société Impériale et Centrale, at Paris in July, 1862; and 5, a prize at Brussels in the same month.  3 is not full enough.  2 has the under side of the petals a different colour- a decided blemish to my mind; while 4 seems from description to be good, a seedling of Triomphe de l'Exposition.  Of 1, 4, and 5, then, we may entertain reasonable hopes.
