ROSE IN THE GARDEN [1] ("Ros annsa n-garad, An" or "Ros san garrda"). AKA and see “A Thaidhg a Rún,” “Jackson's Flowery Garden,” "Primrose Girl (1)," “Smuggler's Reel (The).” Irish, Reel (cut time). A Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (O'Neill/1850, 1001 & 1915): AA'BB' (O'Neill/Krassen). A Cape Breton version of the tune (in ‘A’ Major) goes by the titles “Put Me in the Big Chest” and “Big Coffin Reel”), and William Bradbury Ryan's "Smuggler's Reel (The)" is a related tune. Paul de Grae notes similarities in the first strain with O'Neill's "Irish Hautboy (The)."

Additional notes
