Does this variety indeed still exist, alive, in the Bentalls collection (see tab "Gardens")? I have a perfervid wish that 'Galatea' be propagated and again available commercially. (Perhaps at least a photo could be obtained...?)

Galatea (Perpetual Climber).— Like a double form of Moonlight. There does not appear to be any room for a Rose of this description, and those who will plant it will be very limited in number. Roses of this class must be perfectly distinct and attractive to command public attention, and we shall soon be overburdened with them unless discretion is employed by raisers.
