Notes:
Joyce Demits at Tanglewood Farms says Bouquet of Venus has double, 3-inch, rich pink flowers that appear in small clusters.

'Bouquet de Vénus' in commerce in Europe is a semi-double Gallica. It is also doubtful whether the double Gallica at L'Hay is the rose referenced by Antoine Le Rouge, as this rose is not mentioned after Redouté.
