The 1904 photograph from 'The Garden' shows unopened buds somewhat distorted or shrivelled-looking in appearance. If this was usual for this rose it might help in identifying it, if it still exists unidentified somewhere. Does this feature ring a bell with anyone familiar with foundlings? Also the leaves and stems are rather shiny.

Is this rose extinct? I'm collecting noisettes and would love to know a source for this one.

Ten years on, refer to "Juani de Temperley"' an Argentina foundling.

From the Rosen-Zeitung 1892, page 79: Under the heading Favourite Roses, by Ketten Bros, Luxembourg.
"Lieblingsrosen ...
L'Idéal (Nabonnand 1888): Blume metallischgelb und rot, schattiert und verwaschen mit blendend goldgelb;"
My translation: Favourite Roses ... L'Idéal (Nabonnand 1888) Flower metallic-yellow and red, shaded and suffused with dazzling golden yellow;
