Gloire de Dijon
~ by D. H. Lawrence (1885–1930)

When she rises in the morning
I linger to watch her;
She spreads the bath-cloth underneath the window
And the sunbeams catch her
Glistening white on the shoulders,
While down her sides the mellow
Golden shadow glows as
She stoops to the sponge, and her swung breasts
Sway like full-blown yellow
Gloire de Dijon roses.

She drips herself with water, and her shoulders
Glisten as silver, they crumple up
Like wet and falling roses, and I listen
For the sluicing of their rain-dishevelled petals.
In the window full of sunlight
Concentrates her golden shadow
Fold on fold, until it glows as
Mellow as the glory roses.

Tea Rose - Glore de Dijon by Prof Page, Washington, D.C.
The following particulars are worthy of note at this time concerning this matchless Rose. I have twice *been* alluded ...

It should read "I have twice *before* alluded ..."

HARDINESS OF CHINA ROSES
CHARLES G. PAGE, WASHINGTON, D. C.
There is probably no variety of rose that will endure a temperature of zero Fahr. upon unripened branches, and expanded leaf buds; and there are probably very few roses that will not endure this temperature provided the wood has been fully ripened and the buds are all dormant and the sap quiet. The Gloire de Dijon is an excellent illustration. It belongs to a tender family, but is perfectly hardy here. Its hardiness is not, however, entirely intrinsic, but depends upon its habit of growth. Unlike Teas and Noisettes generally, it stops growing in the fall, and is not apt to be quickened again till the spring. It prepares for winter like a Remontant, and has proved itself here more hardy than the majority of Remontants. In that rigorous winter of 1855-6, it stood better than La Reine, Madame Laffay, Wm. Griffith, and others. This winter has been thus far very destructive to Teas and Noisettes, but the Dijon is unharmed.

THE COMING RACE OF ROSES.
T. W. G.
Deducing a hybrid's origin from its outward characteristics or habit may perhaps be objected to as only presumptive, and therefore inadmissible; but as there are so few records of the origin of Roses (and even those preserved generally give only the seed parent), until the hybridisation of these plants be much more exactly effected and noted, no other method of classifying the bulk of the florists' varieties exists. That the origin of a hybrid may be fairly accurately deduced from the evidence of its exterior is indicated by cases where the exact cross has been recorded. Moreover, it is well known that seedlings raised from a hybrid frequently show a tendency to revert to the form of one of that hybrid's parents. Now it has long been held that Gloire de Dijon originated from the crossing of some Tea-scented Rose by a Bourbon variety. True, there was no yellow Bourbon that could have assisted in the production, but then Gloire de Dijon is only a yellow Rose by courtesy on a north aspect, and the opaque colour (as in Bourbon Queen) that seemed to overlie the yellow in the petals, the flat expanded flowers with the stamens all hidden by the doubled-over petals (as in Souvenir de la Malmaison), and the broad leathery leaves, were deemed sufficiently conclusive evidence. Myriads of seedlings have been raised from Gloire de Dijon, many inclining more to the Tea-scented type, as Belle Lyonnaise, &c, until now comes the white Etendard de Jeanne d'Arc, which at a little distance looks like the ghost of a Souvenir de la Malmaison. This seedling therefore affords an additional indication by reverting to a Bourbon type that the supposition, founded on its external characteristics, of Gloire de Dijon having been a hybrid between a Tea and a Bourbon was well grounded, and this may serve as an argument in favour of reasonable deductions of a similar kind in other cases.
