Joseph Graham (1828-1894) commenced a nursery and seed business in 1857 occupying premises in Sydney's George Street Markets.  He prospered and in 1868 made his home, Lilydale, at Marrickville, establishing extensive nursery gardens there and also later at Auburn. 

Refer The Oxford Companion to Australian Gardens 2002, page 270 for more. 

The 1874 catalogue also contained a listing for 
p29. Ada  H.P rosy crimson. Good.       [Possibly a misprint  for 'Adanson' 1874]
p32. Paul Dupreze  HP. Crimson scarlet, very good.   [Perhaps not Paul Dupuy, which Graham lists in the line above]
p33Thorie  Beautiful pure white rose, large, full, and of fine form.
