[author cites from Revue Horticole 1876] ...'Polyantha' is very hardy... It seeds easily, producing many varieties, which however are not out yet-single pinks, double pinks, single and double yellows, and a very double white. This last is going to be released to commerce. ...This very double white-blossomed plant looks like a miniature Noisette; it seems to be the equivalent of the Pompon Chinas, and could be used, like them, in borders...It was to be seen at the last exposition at the Palais de l'Industrie, in the booth of Messrs. Lévêque and son....under the name 'Paquerette', in allusion to the small size of all its parts, and the elegance of its flower.

Cites from various sources: "Buff-white, shaded peach...extremely large, very full; color, chamois-yellow, with a peach-pink center and dawn-gold reflections...buff-white with rose and yellow shading... vigorous to 12 ft. ... It resembles, in the form of the plant as well as in its abundant autumn flowering, 'Gloire de Dijon'."

Early Polyanthas:
Mignonette (Guillot fils, 1881), Seedling of a seedling of R. multiflora 'Polyantha'; the immediate parent is probably the 'Polyantha Alba Plena Sarmentosa' one sees to have been much used in breeding in Lyon, though unreleased. [Author cites information from different sources and, in particular, an interesting entry from the breeder..] ...From these seedlings, I further got many varieties equally dwarf and very remontant...with soft pink flowers which were full and well-formed though small [this, presumably, is 'Mignonette']; I am going to propagate a quantity sufficient to deliver them into commerce in November 1880...

Multiflore Nain Remontant (Lille, 1893) syn., 'Multiflora Nana Pérpetuelle'. [The author cites from the Journal des Roses 1900] This variety is so floriferous that I have seen bloom on seedlings having no more foliage than their cotyledons. ...In their fourth year, they make little spreading bushes varying from 3-4 dm [30-40 cm]...blossom is usually white, small, full or semi-double, sometimes nearly single....grown, in the fourth year, over 80 dm tall...

[author cites from the Journal des Roses 1878] ...Among the seedlings which didn't bloom until the second or third year was found one which had blossoms with two rows of petals, an inch to an inch and a half across..., not remontant as the others were, but which gave me [Guillot] wonderful seeds which I sowed in February, 1872. Out of this came my dear little 'Pâquerette', which I put into commerce in November, 1875."
