Willison's Rose-Nursery, Whitby...A great number of the China, Noisette and other fine Roses do not bloom well in this locality except under glass; the bloom-buds rarely expand. I will therefore enumerate a few good Roses that appeared to bloom here in perfection....
China: Mrs. Bosanquet, pale flesh; Marjolin du Luxembourg, deep crimson; Milk-maid (Willison), nlush, fine wax-like bud.
