‘Réveil’: Les Bourbon. Obtenteur: Guillot père, 1854. Grandes, souvent en bouquets, les fleurs sont très doubles, d’un rouge carmin vif ombré de violet foncé… Il y a sans doute sur le nom de ce rosier un jeu de mot avec le nom du maire de Lyon de l’époque qui s’appelait Réveil.

The Bourbon Rose (Rosa Bourboniana) is a native of the Isle of Bourbon, and is supposed to be a hybrid between the common China and the Red Rose of Four Seasons. It was introduced to France in 1822. There are now a great number of varieties belonging to this class, including some of the best-known florists' flowers, such as Souvenir de la Malmaison, a rose that is nearly always in flower, and which no garden is complete without. In the following list will be found most of the leading varieties:
