The reference to 'Bardou Job' being triploid seems to come from the 2016 publication, but in that they record their source material as coming from the Loubert Rose Gardens, and that presumably coming from Loubert. The Loubert website shows a double rose which seems to correspond to the "Bardou Job - in commerce as" in Europe, or the "Alcatraz Red Climber" in the US (are they the same? I can't tell), but in any case it doesn't appear to be the authentic variety.
I'd suggest the real 'Bardou Job', as found in Australia, is probably tetraploid.

I wonder whether we have the original Louis XIV in commerce: all descendants are from this century.

We'll likely never know.
I can tell you whatever we have in commerce is a tough little thing. I had it for many years and finally lost it during the drought years in CA.

This rose appears to be offered by Rogue Valley Roses, but it is labeled as extinct or lost on HMF. Can anybody clarify?

I've emailed Janet Inada at RVR asking if this is correct. It should be interesting.

I'll guess there is another unrelated rose going by this name.

RVR has to be incorrect. The original specimen was destroyed by Tunningley and was not distributed prior to it's demise.

Hi Tammy, Janet received the plant in question from Paul Barden. Corresponding with Paul led to his having received it from Robert Rippetoe. A three way between us reached the conclusion that what RVR has as "The Monster" must actually be Secunda, the Old Blush X Gigantea cross. Where RVR obtained their description of the rose they have I wouldn't know, unless it is from HMF, but the only rose Paul received from Robert and then would possibly have forwarded to RVR is Secunda. Avery never let The Monster out of his greenhouse, unfortunately.

Thanks Kim! I didn't see Robert's response below until just now. I thought maybe the Monster had escaped! LOL

I noticed that too, and was looking for a photo, as they did not have one.
