Mme Derepas-Metrat from J. Steckler's Seed Co almanac 1905, page 134

I find this very interesting because it is the same bloom in the previously posted Hill catalogue photograph, and it shows that some of the "woodcut" type line illustrations in early catalogues were drawn from actual photographs. Maybe many others of these type of line drawings were faithful to lost photographs as well.
