Rosa mirifica, Greene. Upright shrub, 3-4 ft.: st. green, glabrous, with slender yellowish white prickles and numerous bristles: lfts. usually broadly cuneate- obovate, incisely or crenately dentate, the teeth sometimes glandular-serrulate, slightly pubescent on both sides or nearly glabrous, light green, 1/3-3/4in. long: fls. solitary, deep rose-purple, 1 1/2-3 in. across: fr. irregularly and broadly turbinate, wrinkled, dull red, prickly, 1/2-3/4in. across. April, May. New Mex., White and Sacramento Mts.—This is one of the most beautiful and the most strikingly distinct of the American roses. The fact that it flowers in its native habitat, according to the writer's observation on the Sacramento Mts., New Mex., freely a second time in Aug. indicates a horticulturally valuable trait. Not hardy N.
