dear etienne, i am right confused about similarities between madame h.leuillot and some of the different types of mme j.gravereaux . did you notice some fragrance on your leuillot, and could you try to describe it? is it strong and fruity?

Hello,
I see what you mean. I have to wait for a new flower to answer you.
For me, MHL is not a big climber and does not have flowers as big as MJG.

hello étienne,
thank you for your reply.
it seems that at least one cultivar in commerce is available under the name of 'madame jules gravereaux' as well as 'comtesse de noghera' and does represent an almost semi-climbing rose, if at all. in the collection of sangerhausen, both items are seemingly identical.
now, i came across 'mme h.leuillot' which shows great resemblance to that gravereaux/noghera-type, especially in the bud with its contorted sepal tips and strongly blotched petal bases as well as the colouring of the blossom wich can display vibrant fiery nuances in the center as features dominique's picture of the plate in levieuze's catalogue.
i am eagerly expecting your novelties!
