[From "Suckering Roses Revisited", by Darrell g.h. Schramm, pp. 23-27]
Among the Portlands I find four roses that cautiously amble away from home—never far. These are ‘Delambre’ (1863), ‘Duchesse de Rohan’ (1847), ‘Indigo’ (1830), and ‘Rose de Rescht’ (reintroduced in 1949).

Indigo Laffay, France c 1830  Good upright bushes with smooth long leaves of good green. Hispid Hep. This is a spectacular rich, dark purple rose, with expanded shape, flushed with dark crimson, showing a few stamens, and occasionally a white streak or mark. Warm scent. Fine display at midsummer and again later. Perhaps the richest and most effective of dark purple roses. 4 feet (Plage 18)
