The 1913 Biltmore Rose Catalog, "Bright china-rose in color, the blossoms coming freely in large, full form. The fragrance is mild and delicate. The plant grows strong, with long, woody shoots that stand erect. Mme. Jules Grolez is a fine specimen for massing, and is frequently used in this manner. Clusters of them present a striking appearance, and there are on nearly all premises places that would ideally reflect a mass of these Roses. A long row of the sturdy plants in full bloom forms a hedge that one will long remember for its unusual and enchanting beauty, and the dainty foliage that remains after the flowers have faded."

Conard & Jones 1906
Mad. Jules Groles--A new rose of great beauty, very handsome bade and large full finely formed flowers; the color is lovely china rose passing to clear rich satiny pink, remarkably bright and attractive.
