We have already recorded the introduction of this rose in Europe, named in honor of Mr. W. Allan Richardson, the well-known horticulturist of Louisville, Kentucky. Mr. Schultheis tells the London Journal of Horticulture, that it was first distributed in 1878, by Madame Ducher at Lyons. The growth is very vigorous, with long branches, much resembling the variety Reve d'Or, with a dark glossy foliage. It bears at the tips of its branches trusses of lovely flowers of moderate size, and of a deep clear orange yellow outside. Under glass the color changes to reddish orange. He does not know any rose of that peculiar color.
