p93 Photo. Twenty old shrub roses with perfume of exceptional refinement [include] ‘Fantin Latour’.

p154. A superb mystery rose with records conspicuously absent. The soft delicate pink flowers and their form puts it into this (Centifolia) group, although its foliage is smoother, darker green and more rounded than is typical. Its shoots too are less thorny. I find the all-pervading perfume rather more Alba-like than Centifolia. Summer flowering only. Tolerant of poor soils. Suitable for hedging, woodland and covert planting. Very fragrant. 5’x 4’ 1.5 x 1.2m.
