Rosa persica, Michx. (R. simplicifolia, Salisb. R. berberifolia, Pall. Lowea berberifolia, Lindl.). Low straggling shrub, 2 ft. high, with slender, prickly branches: lsvs. short-petioled, oval to oblong, acute at both ends, serrate, bluish green, pubescent, 3/4 - 1 1/2 in. long: fls. solitary, yellow, with red eye, about 1 in. across: fr. prickly. June. N. Persia to Siberia. B.M. 7096. B.R. 1261. G.C. III. 6:8, 9, 78. W.R. 1.—This peculiar rose is very rare in cult., since it is very difficult to grow. It has been successfully cult, in a cool greenhouse, exposed to the full sun, kept moist during summer and dry from October to March. The only way to prop, it seems to be by suckers; seeds are occasionally intro. from its native country. A hybrid of this species with R. involucrata is R. Hardii, Cels., with 5-7-foliolate lvs. and large yellowish white fls., with a deep orange eye. G.C. II. 24:469. Gn. 19, p. 473. P.M. 10:195. W.R. 2.
