The following list includes the most distinctive and best known species and species hybrids of the Caninae section....
R. Andersonii (Hillier & Sons) Recognized as a natural hybrid of R. arvensis and R. canina. The large, bright pink, single flowers are 2½ inches across and produced in clusters of 4 to 6, in June. the plant is hardy and vigorous-branching, 4 to 5 feet high, and rather thorny.

Two members of this group, the cherry red Athalin (Jacques, 1830) and the vivid crimson Malton (Fulgens) (Guerin, 1830) were fertile, and another, Gloire des Rosomanes (Vibert, 1825) was both fertile and remontant....Athalin and Malton, being of little value otherwise, have since been discarded

Ayrshire Queen. Dark purplish crimson, semidouble. Originated by Thomas Rivers, in 1835, by crossing Blush Ayrshire with the Damask Rose, Tuscany. The least vigorous of the group.

The colour range of the Hybrid Perpetual class is from white to deep maroon and includes many clear pink and bright crimson varieties.    Tones of yellow are entirely lacking as none of the primary parents was of that color.    Numerous unsuccessful attempts were made to obtain yellow forms by crossing light colored varieties with the pale yellow Tea Rose.    The resultant hybrids consistently failed to produce blossoms of the desired color.   Mme. Albert Barbier (Barbier, 1920) is often classified as a yellow Hybrid Perpetual, but is not a true yellow and differs from the accepted types in many respects.    The parentage given by the introducer is Frau Karl Druschki crossed with an unknown variety, and we may assume that the salmon and orange yellow tints were derived from a Hybrid Tea of similar color.    As Frau Karl Druschki is half Hybrid Tea, the progeny of this rose and a Hybrid Tea should not be placed in the Hybrid Perpetual class.     Several other varieties, such as Bischof Dr. Korum, Candeur Lyonnaise, Isobel Llorach, Louise Cretté, Rembrandt, and St. Ingebert have a trace of yellow, but in characteristics show a definite relationship to the Tea or Hybrid Tea groups.

Another somewhat distinct and extremely hardy group is known as the Hungarian Roses. They are mostly hybrids of R. multiflora with R. rugosa annd other hardy roses, and are credited to Geschwind of Karpona, Hungary. Representative varities are Château Luegg, Décoration de Geschwind, Gilda, Roi des Aunes, and Schneelicht.

Clotilde Soupert is said to have been derived from a cross of the blush white Polyantha, Mignonette, and the creamy white, shaded salmon, Tea Rose Mme. Damaizin. The tendency of Clotilde Soupert to produce frequently a red blossom makes such a parentage improbable, as neither Mignonette or Mme. Damaizin had an ancestor of that color. In other respects, the generally accepted parentage is possible, but if the genes for a primary color do not exist in the parents, they are not likely to occur in the progeny, and we must therefore assume that the parentage of Clotilde Soupert is incorrectly recorded.

R. saturata. Baker. An attractive species from central and southwest China that produces enormous quantities of distinct, 3/4 inch, ovoid, coral-red hips, and for this reason, is often referred to as the Coral Rose. Bright pink, 2-inch, usually solitary blossoms, large attractive foliage, almost smooth rownish-green canes, and erect branching habit of growth to 8 feet, are distinguishing characteristics. Related to R. moyesii. Introduced and cultivated in 1906, but not named until 1914.

 In 1828 , a rather sensational seedling , Craighall Climbing Rose , was exhibited at a show in Dundee , Scotland.  In describing it , the exhibitor , Daniel Stewart , stated that " to the rambling habit of the Ayrshire , it adds the beauty of some of the double white varieties."

p35 'De la Grifferaie' (Vibert, 1846) Quite hardy, but the malformed flowers of various tones of magenta varying to white are unattractive. In some ways, this rose is reminiscent of R. setigera.

p38 …Hybridization has resulted in …and 'De la Grifferaie' (probably R. multiflora x R. setigera)
