Color is more Salmon in the heat of the summer, much like period descriptions.

The Indian Gardener volume 2 states that the parentage of this rose is Mme Falcot and Triomphe de l' Exposition

Thanks Matt. If you can see it, can I have the exact text. I've added the page number etc as a reference, but the parentage is the reverse of what other refs are saying.

Thanks for adding it. A photo will come soon. I bought my plant from Pam Greenewald of Angel gardens, she imported from Hook in France. Will post a photo when it blooms

Very, very tiny printing - and half the text is chopped off. Sorry Matt. My eyes are just not that good.

"Interior Salmon White, Outside Salmon Red. Medium size, a sport between Triomphe de l' Exposition and Mme Falcot"
