The French family called Cochet had a number of rose breeders in the 19th century and early 20th century,- Pierre, father and Pierre son, Scipion and others and many of their roses are well known—Maman Cochet, Blanc Double de Coubert, Madame Rene Gravereaux etc. We wanted to honor this very productive rose breeder family. So we decided to name this very large whitish pink beautifully formed flowered rose with this name.
