Rootstock less creeping: prickles stouter: lfts. usually 5, pubescent on both sides or only beneath, larger and thinner; rachis not prickly: fls. usually pink, very double, on long and slender pedicels, nodding, fragrant; petals inflexed; sepals persistent. June, July. E. Caucasus. W.R. 115. G. 1:340. Of this rose the double-flowered form only is in cult., known already to the ancients. Var. muscosa, Ser. (R. muscosa, Alt.). Moss Rose. Fig. 3442. Fls. rose, with peduncles and calyx glandular-mossy. B.M. 69. Gn. 18:84. G.W. 7, p. 125. Var. álbo-muscosa, Willmott. Like the preceding, but fls. white. B.R. 102. W.R. 117. Var. cristata, Prevost, has the mossy excrescences confined to the edges of the sepals. B.M. 3475. G.W. 7,p. 125. W.R. 118. Var. pomponia, Lindl. (A. pulchella, Willd. R. dijonensis, Roessig). Pompon Rose.Dwarf form: lfts. elliptic, glabrous above, about 1 in. long: fls. double, bright red, 1 1/2 in. across; pedicels densely setose. W.R. 119. Var. parvifolia, Rehd. (R. parvifolia, Ehrh.
