Hello,

I saw that you listed the new roses of Guillot catalog Good work !

But there is a little mistake in the name of this rose. It is not 'Ladure' but 'Ladurée'...
"Ladurée" is the name of a famous brand of French pastry, whose specialty is the "Macaron".

Here is the link of this catalog :
http://www.rosesguillot.com/include/upload/catalogue/brochure_20_1.pdf
See page 12.

Thank you for correcting this error, and congratulations for your work.

Have a nice day !

'England's Rose' [Auslounge]

The last introduction by David Austin for the new season 2010-2011.

First of all, this new rose bears the same name as another Austin's rose which is :
'England's Rose' [Ausrace] - Year of introduction : 2000
and must not be confused.

The 'England's Rose' of 2010 is a deep red pink flower, fully double, strongly scented, with a excellent repeating flowering.

The link is :

Thank you for all and have a nice week-end.

Shame on the Austin marketers for doing this. "The rose must not be confused." What about not confusing people?

Indeed, you are absolutely right. They have not even had the idea to add the year in the name of the rose, as had been done for the roses 'Wisley' and 'Wisley 2008'.

Three possible explanations :
1- Austin marketers have memory lapses and completely forgot the ancient 'England's Rose'...
2- They have a special sens of humor and want effectively create confusion... LOL...
3- Last possibility : they are running out of ideas ! And this will be the ultimate shame for marketers...

On these purely marketing considerations, I wish you a very good week-end.

"England's Rose" almost certainly refers to a song sung by Elton John in memory of the late Princess of Wales. I don't think they'd forgotten the earlier rose, they just thought there was more money to be made out of the name. But I do like your second suggestion.

Hello,

There is a mistake in the name of this rose.
In fact, it is not 'Xavier de Frayssinette', but 'Xavier de Fraissinette' (with an "i" instead of "y").

It is the name of a famous jeweler, who is equally sculptor and designer.

Here is the link of the Guillot Catalog :
http://www.rosesguillot.com/include/upload/catalogue/brochure_20_1.pdf
See page 17 of this catalog.

Furthermore, you will find, in this same catalog, missing roses in HMF website, like :
'Ladurée' [Masladu]
'Madame Paul Massad' [Maslupau]
'Prix P.J. Redouté' [Maspiejo]
'Reine Sammut' [Masmagbe]

I wish you a good work......
Thank you and have a nice day.
