    LIST OF ROSES NOW IN CULTIVATION AT CHATEAU ELEONORE, CANNES,
    WITH DESCRIPTIVE NOTES.
    BROUGHAM & VAUX.
    CHATEAU ELEONORE, CANNES.
    May 1898
    London : JOHN & E. BUMPUS, LTD. 1898.

    COMTESSE DE LEUSSE.

    Tea — Nabonnand, 1879.
    Tender rose colour with centre shaded almost to gold, ruby coloured buds,
    large flowers, not very full and imbricated. Plant vigorous, growing to a large
    size, very free-flowering, altogether a splendid variety, shows to great advantage
    in a semi-shaded situation. I do not think this fine rose is much known in
    England, where, judging from its manners and customs here, it should succeed.
