Jacqui Davies.  Discovering Gallicas at Araluen. 
As Pat Toolan wrote in her recent review of the book Historical Roses: in the Europa- Rosarium Sangerhausen, 2020. “The photos are of such quality and size that they will help identify found roses in these classes.” After looking in it at the photo of La Belle Sultane (before 1795) and noticing for the first time the darker shading on the petals I realised I had never really looked closely at that flower in Araluen. Also that book says Violacea (1795) is a different variety from La Belle Sultane. From the photographs the only difference I can see is the number of rows of petals.

One of the many Gallicas produced in the Low Counties before 1814 and still with us today. Dupont in Paris had, in 1813, a collection of 218 species and varieties of roses, of which 60 were Gallicas. Of his 60 Gallicas, this is one of the twelve that still exist.
