Thus there is lovely 'Lady Curzon', by some put among the 'gallicas' by others among the Damasks, while to the average observer she possesses scarce a hint as to her connection with either group. As a matter of history, 'Lady Curzon', raised by George Lilley, foreman at Turner's Nursery, Slough, is a 'rugosa' hybrid, the seed parent being R. rugosa var. rubra, the other being in doubt. And that took place less than fifty years ago.
