p. 7: From R. californica, Geschwind bred Theano, a variety that was for years regarded as a synonym for R. californica plena. Comparing both roses in the world-famous collections at Sangerhausen or Roseto di Cavriglia, one can easily verify that they are different roses.

p. 9: Some roses were sold to Peter Lambert (Zigeunerknabe and Parkzierde) and to J. C. Schmidt (Himmelsauge, Schneelicht and Theano) and are still attributed to them.

Rosa californica 'Plena Rosa californica f. plena Rehd. - Syn. 'Theano'.
Obtenu par Geschwind en 1894. Haut. et diam. 2 m - Feuilles: 5 ou 7 folioles elliptiques larges, long. 1 à 3 cm, bords à dents simples - Fleurs: diam. 4 cm - Infloescences: corymbes paniculés.
Les tiges de l'année précédente, s'arquent sous le poids des fleurs qui se forment sur toute leur longueur, s'épanouissant depuis juin jusqu'en juillet. Ces fleurs doubles, mais peu serrées, varient du rose soutenu au pourpre pâle; elles sentent bon. L'écorce et les aiguillons sont verts dans leur jeunesse: puis ceux-ci deviennent gris, celle-là rouge-brun. La plante a, dans son ensemble, une réelle valeur décorative.
