Roses in 1864.
La Reine de la Pape has very much of Bourbon blood in it, and will be chiefly useful for autumn flowers; it is of average merit.

New Roses.
...And now for the Hybrid Perpetuals.  We will take them according to the raisers.
Guillot père.
17.  La Reine de la Pape.  (What is the meaning of this?)  This variety is said to be a beautiful violet rose.
18.  Mademoiselle Lobay [sic], blush.
19.  Pavilion de Pregny, half white and half rosy purple.
Of these 17 sounds well, and 19 looks like a novelty.  Of 18 I do not think much expectation can be formed; but the raiser of Senateur Vaisse and Madame William Paul deserves the highest consideration.

M. Eugène Verdier gives me the following reason of this name. There is in the neighbourhood of Lyon a little hamlet named La Pape. In this village, M. de Canrobert possesses a beautiful property, and M. Guillot desired to dedicate his rose to Madame Canrobert; but perceiving that he had been forestalled, and that another rose of M. Liabaud's bore this name, he decided to give it the name of "Reine de la Pape" in honour of Madame Canrobert, but this fact unfortunately no one knows.
