Hello, James. Are we certain that Gandy's is selling the polyanthas from the 1950's, newly packaged as "Compacta Roses"? I couldn't tell from checking the website.

Hi Cass,

Check the term "Compacta Roses" in the Help Me Find Glossary on the left of your screen.

C.W. Groves & Son also sells them as "Compacta Roses", and they have nice pictures.

"Compacta Roses" should indicate that Gandy's roses (without the pictures) are the correct polyanthas from the 1950's. 'A picture is worth a thousand words.'.

I'm embarrassed the information was right in front of me! Thanks, Jim.

Hello Cass,
the term Compacte roses ist original from the Breeder who introduced them in the 1950s under this name because they are really diffrent from other miniature-roses

because of the flower size and other considerations this variety should be considered a polyantha or floribunda.it certainly isnt a large flowered rose.

You should address your concern to the American Rose Society's Registration Committee. LCl is the ARS class, and that's what HMF reports.

I agree that while it may be officially listed, its flowers are no more than an inch. Perhaps this was a translation issue. Perhaps a mention of flower size could be put on the front listing as many readers dont read the comments or even notice the different tabs. Just a suggestion. :)

Almost everything you say about a rose called Excellenz von Schubert is wrong! It is a purple Hybrid Musk, with a delicious heavy scent, not a deep pink Polyantha with no to mild fragrance. Gregg Lowery says: Long clusters of small, full, grape-purple to crimson flowers, sweetly scented, on a plant of moderate growth with burnished, olive-green foliage. A Lambertina of exceptional quality; the bright panicles of bloom make quite a show in the garden. He gives it four r's for repeat bloom, and three f's for fragrance, and lists it among the Hybrid Musks.

See the comments already on the page for this rose - there seem to be two roses using the name. Does the purple one set hips? Does the pink one?
REPLY
Reply #2 of 11 posted 20 MAY 10 by roses257
I love the flowers so much that I never let mine set hips. Haven't seen the pink one.

Reply #3 of 11 posted 20 MAY 10 by Cass
I don't recall any hips. I don't deadhead.

Reply #7 of 11 posted 21 MAY 10 by Margaret Furness
Cass, which one do you have? There are no descendants listed for Excellenz von Schubert; plenty for Gartendirektor Otto Linne.
REPLY
Reply #8 of 11 posted 21 MAY 10 by Cass
I grow both, Margaret. I have 4 plants of the mauvey, scented, red-caned rose that has pompon-type blooms (sold as EVS). I have only one plant of the pink rose that grows like a floribunda (sold as GOL).

Reply #9 of 11 posted 16 OCT 22 by RoseAddict_NorthTX
Would you say that EVS has more cupped blooms as opposed to GOL that never has cupped but more flat? I am trying to figure out what I have, the blooms don’t really look like EVS (are not cupped) and are definitely pink, not mauve/purple or lilac. It’s hard to figure out from pics of these two since it seems like both EVS and GOL have both roses mixed up in pics (I read the discussion on the fact that some nurseries sell them as the other). I bought mine at Antique Rose Emporium if that helps.

I have added some photos of EVS and GOL as they are sold in Europe. The blooms of EVS are mauve-pink, full, rounded, in medium-sized clusters. GOL's blooms are pink, double, in large clusters, which are sometimes pyramidal.

Thank you for adding the photos. I think mine is GOL (not EVS), don’t you think (pic posted)?

All the early sources agree on 'Excellenz von Schubert' being a carmine-pink rose. This means that the identification by Vintage gardens is incorrect.

Could you please cite some of those "early sources"? Thanks

Roses257............

Just go to the rose page and click on the REFERENCES tab. You will find several references that site both color and class for the rose.
