p39. Alister Clark. The Roses in My Garden
...in the new French Rose, Ville D'Angers, we have another very large variety, and it is to be hoped that nothing bigger will appear; fine Rose as it is, its colour is not as bright as hoped for. However, it is a great seeder, and surely should give us some fine Roses. The chrysanthemum has become too large, also the dahlia; may Roses escape that fate.
p79. John Poulsen, NZ. South Island Roses
Ville d'Angers is a splendid grower, producing very large blooms, but in this climate the colour is not quite right. I, unfortunately, had it growing near Christopher Stone and the colour was killed completely. Grown by itself it is quite passable, but it is too light for a red and too deep for a pink. Associated with yellows or apricots it is quite good.

Ville D'Angers. Very vigorous growth with good foliage. The flowers have been very large and semi-double, with huge petals opening rather loosely. During the first blooming the colour was inclined to bleach, but in the autumn it has been much better. It is a showy Rose and a fine, healthy doer.
p121. Mr. S. J. Bisdee. Tasmanian Rose Notes.
Ville D'Angers. A fine, strong growing thing, giving large semi-double blooms, magenta red in spring, deepening to cherry-red in the hotter weather. Holds its colour well.

Third on the list is Ville d'Angers HT. (Delaunay, 1934) which, except for fragrance, might be likened to a red 'Mrs. Warren Lenon'. The petals are large and broad, and build up a shapely bloom which keeps its currant-red colour very well. The flowers are carried on long stems, while the growth is particularly vigorous and healthy.

New Roses 1939. Ville d'Angers (HT. Delaunay 1934) Long pointed buds, opening to semi-double cupped flowers of pure currant red. The blooms are freely produced on long stems, while the growth is vigorous. 5/- each.
