Graham Stuart Thomas. ....the date given for the naming or introduction of Souvenir de la Malmaison is 1843. This is a Bourbon rose, descended from a Bourbon, and at the time was the largest, fullest rose in this group, though later surpassed in 1880 by ‘Madame Isaac Pereire’. Moreover, in spite of its age it is a stalwart bushy plant, reaching about 4-5 ft (1.2 – 1.5m) high and wide. The foliage is good and broad and the production of the great blooms is continuous from June onwards, they are of a delicate blush-pink. Unfortunately it is not often seen; the climbing sport, which originated in Australia in 1893, is much more common but only flowers at mid-summer and again in September; it is a coarse growing plant and not really worth garden room. On a wall it will reach 10-12 ft (3.3 – 3.6m). Both forms have a peculiar, faint fragrance.
