China Roses and Hybrids. Noisette. This rose, which is a variety of the preceding [Champneys' Blush Cluster], is very similar to it in the size and colour of the flowers, but these are more double, and produced in larger clusters. It is an admirable variety, producing its flowers in large numbers together in the manner of the white musk. It flourishes most in a free exposition, and needs no protection in winter. There are two other varieties, one with deeper red, and the other with single flowers.

China Roses and Hybrids. Champneys' Blush Cluster. This is a double rose of small size, of a delicate blush colour, and the flowers are produced in numerous clusters. It was originated from the seed of the White Cluster Musk, (probably impregnated by accident with the pollen of the Blush China,) by my esteemed friend, the late John Champneys Esq. of Charleston, South Carolina, and from it have originated all the race of roses termed Noisette, which should therefore be placed as subvarities of the Champneys. All the roses of this class are particularly beautiful, as their small and delicate flowers, produced in large clusters during the autumnal season, form a splendid additional appendage to the garden at that period when it seems most to need their aid. The Champney, Noisette, and most of the varieties, may be trained against the sides of houses, over bowers, &c. to a very considerable length, although not quite so rampant in their growth as the different varieties of Multiflora.
