Excerpt: ...to propagate from cuttings than other Roses, and is to be found in only one nurseryman's list, but I am glad to say its merit has been recognised, and a stock of it will, I believe, soon again be obtainable.

No mention has been made of Gloire de Dijon and its many seedlings, for they do not show to as great advantage as in more northern gardens. Belle Lyonnaise is fairly good, but there is one of more modern date, Duchesse d'Auerstadt, which proves the exception to the rule, and is most excellent in every way.
