'Marie Finger' 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.

NOTES ON THE NEW ROSES
page 150
Madame Marie Finger has been selected from the seed-bed of Rambaud, a raiser quite unknown to rosarians here ; but as it had the distinction of a first-class certificate conferred upon it at the Lyons Congress, and was distributed first by Lacharme, few doubts need be felt as to its merits. The habit is said to be vigorous, the flowers
large and globular, and the colour bright flesh colour, approaching to carmine in the centre.

The nature of this rose is still mysterious. The reference you quote says that Rambaux's rose is the same as that assigned to Lacharme. Later references however state that Mme Marie Finger is a synonym of the earlier Mlle Eugénie Verdier by Guillot. Now this might be another case where two roses were arbitrarily declared synonymous, but some more research is needed.
