Trinity Church Cemetery was build in 1842..... One professional rosarian, Daniel Boll, is buried in the cemetery. In what is now Times Square, Boll had a nursery featuring the latest in French roses. He died in 1862 and since then has been largely forgotten, even though Charles Hovey praised him as one of the best cultivators and hybridizers of roses in the country. Who was Daniel Boll? The only rose connected to him currently in commerce is 'Mme. Boll', a Hybrid Perpetual that was named for his second wife. Some claim that the rose sold today as 'Comte de Chambord' is really 'Mme.

Boll' (bought as 'Comte de Chambord') in the Heritage Rose District....

Boll (D. Boll/Boyau, 1859) is the correct name for Comte de Chambord.
