'Léonie Lamesch' P. Lambert (Allemagne), 1900.
Charpente: buisson de 1 m environ, assez large, d'ampleur supérieure à la moyenne des polyantha; aiguillons peu nombreux mais gros. Feuillage: vert sombre, abondant; nouvelles pousses brunâtres. Fleur: petite, double, parfois solitaire, le plus souvent en bouquets. Couleur: très originale, mêlant le rouge, l'orange et le jaune. Grand nombre de nuances sur le même rosier à un moment donné. Parfum: assez bon. Issue du croisement d' 'Aglaia' x 'Kleiner Alfred' : c'est grâce au jaune d' 'Aglaia' que P. Lambert parvint à renouveler les coloris des polyantha, renouvellement dont 'Léonie Lamesch' est un bon example. En outre, un rosier vigoureux et rustique. Mériterait d'être plus souvent cultivé et mieux commercialisé.
