Juliette. 47278. Miniature; Introduced Lamb Nurseries. MR8. "A miniature 'Gruss an Teplitz'. Dbl (25-35 petals), brilliant crimson-scarlet. Foliage bright red in fall. Vig. (10-12"), free bloom". Size 1' and under. Source Carolyn Albright 9-81. Bed 33. Row A #. Very china like. Somewhat reminiscent of 'Fabvier'. New growth bronze, with reddish slightly down hooked prickles. Foliage dark green, long, pointed. Flowers small dbl (20-25 petals), bright crimson, streaked with white. Identical to 'Fabvier', probably a commercial re-introduction of an unknown red China. Edinger: "This appears to be the same as the red China that Joyce Demits and Virginia Hopper are offering as 'Sanguinea' (their plant from Douglas Seidel).

 La Biche.  Noisette;  Paul, 1848:   “Flowers white, their center flesh, very large and very double;  form, cupped.  Growth, vigorous.  A fine Pillar-Rose.”  Phil Edinger:  “This must be the somewhat Devoniensis-like tinted white from the Pioneer Cemetery in Salem, OR.    It sure isn’t a climbing tea-noisette, as La Biche should be.   It turned up in Santa Rosa,  and Fred (Boutin) also found it in his area.    Fred came up with a possible ID that I’d buy easily, based on 19th-century illustrations:  Mme. Mélanie Willermoz!    Check the plate in Curtis’ Beauties of the Rose”.   [MR8:  “Mme. Mélanie Willermoz.  Tea.  (Lacharme, 1849.)    Fragrant, white tinted pink.”]    Source: unknown.  Bed 23.
