Duchess of Albany
Duchess of Albany Rose is what is known among florists as a "sport" from La France. In color it is a deep, even, firmly fixed pink of marvelous beauty and regularity. It possesses a fragrance that is decidedly pleasing. The blossoms are numerous and are symmetrical in their proportions, being large and full. The surface of the petals is of splendid finish and they attract everyone by their luster. The growth of the plant is vigorous, with long canes that lean far out, as if to present their blossoms to those who would approach the bush.

"The Queen of Flowers" By Edwin Lonsdale
La France is not so much in demand as it was ten years or so ago before American Beauty became more plentiful, but it may still be had in limited quantity. This rose has produced several sports, some of which are as follows: Duchess of Albany, with flowers much darker; Augustine Guinoiseau, much lighter in color, being very nearly white; and a striped variety.
