"That Rosa sulphurea is a haughty high-bred beauty that disdains even to shew herself beautiful unless she is pleased; I love better what comes nearer home to the charities and wants of everyday life." He had not answered her, Fleda knew; she thought of what he had said to Mrs. Evelyn about liking beauty but not beauties.

"One of the queens of the tribe is there, in the neighbourhood of the Macartneys the difficult rosa sulphurea it finds itself so well accommodated, that it condescends to play its part to perfection. Do you know that?" "Not at all."

It is when we come to the aristocratic Alpine forms, to A. alpina, A. sulphurea, A. narcissiflora, etc., that difficulties alike of propagation and of culture test our skill to the uttermost. Tourists fond of gardens walk over these plants in bloom every year; they dig up roots and send them home; but they are as yet very rare in even the best of gardens. Nor is it easy to rear them from seeds.
A year ago I sowed seed by the ounce each of A. alpina and of A. sulphurea, but as yet not a single plantlet has rewarded me for my trouble. Even freshly gathered seeds of A. narcissiflora will not germinate with me, but I live in hopes of surmounting little difficulties of this kind, and in the mean time, perhaps, others more fortunate will tell us how to amend our unsuccessful ways.
