'Sultane Favorite' rose Reviews & Comments
HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Modern Roses (13) equates Petite Renoncule Violette with Félicie, and leaves out "Sultane Favorite" altogether. It also does not have "Petite Renoncule". I received a cutting of a "Sultane Favorite" from Gregg Lowery, if it takes root I will try to post more pics in the future.

There is also a gallica 'Sultan favorite', which is the rose which Modern Roses is referring to. It is unclear why there is a gallica and a Portland of the same name in old publications. Time (and research) will sort this out, we hope.

You know what, I just checked again and MR13 does have the Sultane Favorite but it was not in "boldface" type so I missed it! It refers it to its "accepted" name, Felicie and says it is a HGal, I might need better glasses!
