... I will take the other instance of four synonyms that are bracketed by the National Rose Society, with a parenthetical remark that this variety might well have five. The National Rose Society gives it Alba rosea, Josephine Malton, Mme. Bravy and Mme. de Sertot, but if the best foreign Rose list is to be depended upon, it was known previously as Danzile. Later on it was sent out by Guillot as Mme. Bravy in 1848, by Pernet as Mme. de Sertot in 1859, by Lartey as Alba rosea in 1862, and later still as Josephine Malton. I do not know the introducer of it by the last name, but believe it was sent out in 1870 or 1871, that being about the date it first came under my notice. I think we may take it that both Mme. Bravy and Maurice Bernardin are among the very best of their respective classes, and hence the inducement to send them out among other new (?) varieties. The whole list might be gone through in the same manner and would yield very similar results.

Mme Bravy, Tea. Richmond, Va. From Vintage Rose Garden, Ca.
On the basis of one year's bloom, a lovely rose, here on a concrete porch open to the elements & surviving both the winter & summer, not being watered sufficiently, but this spring repotted in a very large receptacle and repaying the effort.
It seems to be free from diseases. The fine semi-transparent outer petals have a blush pink in the center, a beautiful constrast, unfortunately on what seem the weakest necks in the Tea family. It must look very fine when seen from below. Thorns no trouble.

'Mme Bravy'has been created by a gardener of Pont de Cheruy, a vilage in isere france), named GUILLOT but this guillot was not a Jean baptiste GUILLOT'parent.
This gardener sold 'Danzile' to Jean Baptiste GUILLOT , the son, who dedicate the rose to Mme Bravy, the wife ot Horticultural Society ot Hérault's secretary.
