This may be the same as 'Impératrice Maria Feodorowna de Russie' and 'Imperatrice de Russia'.
In the 1889 Dingee & Conard catalog has nearly the same description for "Empress Marie of Russia", as their 1885 catalog had for 'Imperatrice de Russia'; except that the color is "passing to white, delicately tinged with pale lemon; very beautiful."

Dingee & Conard 1886 Finest New Roses of 1885 Imperatrice de Russia—A splendid new variety introduced from France, and highly recommended. Fine, stately flowers, extra large, very full and delightfully perfumed; color, fine canary yellow, deepening at centre to rich orange. Price, 35 cents.

The American Florist. Dec. 1, 1886 Exadolphe. A small bud, very thin in petal, and a rose far below the average. Very similar to Imperatrice of Russia, if not identical with it. Cannot recommend it for any purpose.
