Noisette \Noi*sette"\, n. (Bot.)
   A hybrid rose produced in 1817, by a French gardener,
   Noisette, of Charleston, South Carolina, from the China rose
   and the musk rose. It has given rise to many fine varieties,
   as the {Lamarque}, the {Marechal (or Marshal) Niel}, and the
   {Cloth of gold}. Most roses of this class have clustered
   flowers and are of vigorous growth. --P. Henderson.
