'Honorine de Brabant' rose References
Book  (1975)  Page(s) 98.  
 
Commandant Beaurepaire...is said to have a sport in....Honorine de Brabant which is equally effective, if not more so, as it is seldom out of flower. It is larger and perhaps coarser: it is certainly lusty, 8 ft x 9 ft, with much large leathery foliage, mid green in colour. The blooms are very pale lilac-pink, striped and spotted with darker tones, which vary from mauve to violet. The later flowers are particularly good. She and the Commandant are deservedly popular.

There is another striped Bourbon still in commerce named Honorine de Brabant with lilac-pink blooms striped and mottled deep crimson which changes to violet. It forms a big shrub to six feet, flowers freely in the first flush and then sparingly for the remainder of the season; its provenance and date of occurrence are unknown, although it is obviously a sport.
