'Kurtzii' 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.

The New England Farmer and Horticultural Journal, Volume 11. no. 42. p. 330 (May 1, 1833)
Two roses, exhibited by Mr. Samuel Feast, excited general interest. They are quite new varieties, raised by him from seeds of the common Tea rose, very probably with an admixture of some other variety. The appearance of the plant and its foliage, is particularly neat; it grows very freely, and flowers beautifully, Blossoms large, and well colored, borne on graceful stems, with a singular fragrance, like that of the common Tea rose and the China rose combined. It has been named, in compliment to an amateur of the city, Kurtz's Rose, or Rosa Thea, var: Kurtzii.

Mag. Hort. 3(4): 129 (Apr 1837)
Of roses, I think I may say with safety, he [Samuel Feast] has at least five hundred specimens, all of which promise very favorably. Besides which, he has many blooming plant of excellent character, produced by him years ago. I am unable to name more than one or two, though I know he has a considerable collection. The Kurtzii, a most beautiful tea rose, and Master Burke, the most dwarfish rose, I believe, in existence, occur to me at the moment a a sample.
