Gustave Piganeau (Pernet & Ducher, 1889) is a Rose which,having been finally shown, has been much talked of, and probably largely propagated this year. For a very full-sized flower is has a better shape than Ulrich Brunner, and a large majority of the blooms seem to come uniformly good. I see it is marked "very vig." in one of the best catalogues, but my two or three plants (maiden) have been of quite moderate growth, and have made but little wood. Undoubtedly a very fine Rose, and one of the best of its year.
