'Margaret Jane' rose References
Magazine (Oct 1851) Page(s) 256. There were several seedlings of Mr. Willison's of considerable merit, which have not yet been let out; among which I particularly noticed, La Exquisite, d.p., a nice full flower, of tolerable size; Ephraim Holding, a very compact flower, but I scarce know to which class it most properly belongs. Margaret Jane, h.c.: fine pinky Rose, a beautiful full and compact flower, the most perfect gem in these gardens; Victory, h.p., a nice full globular rose, but we have many of the same style of flower; Globosa, h.b., crimson purple, very fragrant, and a profuse bloomer; Marchioness of Normanby, h.p., fine pink, and a very perfect flower.
