La forme. — Elle est transformée suivant l'avancement de la floraison. Le double coeur de « Lady Forteviot » de « Lilette Mallerin » ou de « Hadley » ; la coupe régulière de « Rosiériste Florent Begault » ou « Louise-Catherine Breslau »; la forme réflexe de « Caledonia » ou étoilée de « Provence » ou en quartiers de « Souvenir de la Malmaison » ou « Madame Honore Defresne » sont à retenir.

p136.  Dr. A. S. Thomas.  An Outstanding Year for Novelties
Provence: The first four flowers were of deep copper colour without shadings. Carried erect on long, thin, hard stems, they
were very beautiful and opened slipoely ro blooms of unusual exhibition quality on such a young plant.  Side shoots from the stems of the early flowers were well advanced before the first blooms opened.  Each of the second crop of seven flowers has been quite different from those of the earlier crop. These have been very like Mme. Jean Gaujard with the reflexing petals deep orange on the outside and soft buff yellow on the inside. A lovely rose.
