The British Pharmacopoeia directs that Red Rose petals are to be obtained only from R. gallica, of which, however, there are many variations, in fact there are practically no pure R. gallica now to be had, only hybrids, so that the exact requirements of the British Pharmacopoeia are difficult to follow. Those used in medicine and generally appearing in commerce are actually any scented roses of a deep red colour, or when dried of a deep rose tint. The main point is that the petals suitable for medicinal purposes must yield a deep rose-coloured and somewhat astringent and fragrant infusion when boiling water is poured upon them. The most suitable are the so-called Hybrid Perpetuals, flowering from June to October, among which may be specially recommended the varieties: Eugène Furst, deep dark red, sweet-scented. General Jacqueminot, a fine, rich crimson, scented rose. Hugh Dickson, rather a large petalled one, but of a fine, deep red colour and sweetscented. Ulrich Brunner, bright-red. Richmond, deep crimson-red. Liberty, scarlet-red.

G. Hill, which is a bright pink on the outside of the petal, and rosy white on the reverse.   ‘Liberty’ itself, however, came from ‘Mrs. W. J. Grant’ x ‘General Jacqueminot’....

General List. (102) Liberty (HT) (A. Dickson) F. 3. Brilliant crimson of splendid form. The dwarf variety is not recommended, as it is not a satisfactory grower. We supply the climbing sport, which may be trained as a dwarf with much better results, or if specially well cared for, it may be used as a vigorous climber.
