The 1913 Biltmore Rose Catalog says, "A French Rose of splendid bright red hues and with a fragrance reminding one of delicious tea. It flowers freely, and the blossoms are large. The buds are especially beautiful, being long and graceful, and open slowly. The plant grows vigorously from the start and produces its brilliant blossoms in great profusion. At its very introduction it attained a high place among European Rose-growers, and has been considered one of the most promising varieties among the multitude of French introductions. While Triomphe de Pernet Pere Rose has not been so generally cultivated in this country as other Hybrid Teas it is worthy of much consideration, as it bears its brilliant flowers in profusion, even when grown in poor soil.

A good word must be said in passing for Triumph de Pernet Pere. Color vivid crimson, form refined and symmetrical when open—the buds long and pointed. Jean Pernet the celebrated French rosarian thinks this is the best he has yet sent out.
