'Dundee  Rambler'    Trailer    White     Summer 
The Ayrshires appear to have started in Scotland, with some mystery, for the Earl of Loudon  is said to have obtained the seeds originally responsible from an expedition that went to Canada in 1767. But R. arvensis is not native to Canada; the botanist who collected a common British plant would not have advanced his standing; and the seedlings raised were clearly related to R. arvensis, and eventually sold as Ayrshire Roses. The report came from Joseph Sabine, Secretary of the Royal Horticultural Society, in 1822; and  I think that with a time lag of fifty-five years from the expedition, we are entitled to doubt it. Moreover, I suspect that there was quite a long period between 1767 and the introduction of Ayrshires, which so far as I know are not mentioned in eighteenth-century catalogues. Perhaps there were two lots of seed, and a wrong identification at some stage.  'Dundee Rambler'  did not  come from  Loudon Castle in Ayrshire, but from  Mr Martin  of Rose Angle, Dundee,  who  raised 'several  of our prettiest varieties', according to Thomas  Rivers. This one was  double and white.  The date of introduction is unknown. Mr Martin's strangely named abode tempted him  to dub some of his Ayrshires after it: 'Angle' and 'Angle Blush' are puzzling rose names without that knowledge.
