'Staebon Rose' Reviews & Comments
HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.
Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.
We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.
Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..
We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.
As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

I have found four references to 'Staeban', which is possibly a variation on 'Stebon'. Three of the references only list the name, but Cree (1829) gives the color as "mottled blush", which agrees with the 1770 reference.
William Bridgewater Page, Hammersmith Nursery, 1817
Sarah Mackie, Nursery, Norwich, 1825
John Cree, Hortus Addlestonensis, 1829 p. 34
166 Staebon - mottled blush
Thomas Willats, Esq., Florist Cultivator, 1835

A New and Accurate History and Survey of London, Westminster, Southwark, and ... vol. 4, p. 438 (1766)
Rev. John Entick. M. A.
At the S. end of this green lies the village of Stepney, or Stebon-heath, or Stiben's-heath, whose antiquity and importance in former times may be collected from it being once the residence of kings, the seat of parliament, which was held there, and the place where the deans of St. Paul's had their country-mansion.
[I include this note because I was not sure that Stebon Rose and Stepney Rose were the same thing.]

I was just going to ask you that. They just might be. But there is a time difference of more than 15 years.
