'Caryophyllacea perfecta' rose Reviews & Comments

This rose probably bloomed in 1828, thus the copy-pasted date is to update. See references in my book "Rosomanes et Roses au Mans, de la Renaissance à nos jours" (2024, pp.145-149).

Unfortunately we have no access to any catalogues by Jacquemet-Bonnefont. The mention in Joyaux's books is insufficient to list a 'Oeillet parfait' from before 1830. If you have such catalogues, it would be useful to post a scan of the relevant page.

I was looking for this Jacquemet-Bonnefont 1830 catalog without success, it was in a private collection I guess.
Nevertheless, according other historical elements presented in my book and in particular another catalog of Jacquemet-Bonnefont dating 1839 I own, we are very sure this rose was presented much before 1841.
I'm quite confident about trusting M. Joyaux's date of 1830.

Rogue Valley Roses doesn't list 'Oeillet Parfait', but it does have 'Oeillet Flamand'....but the picture of that rose -- listed as a Gallica -- doesn't show stripes. Perhaps it's the Damask.

Thanks Christopher,
We've deleted the Rogue Valley listing for 'Oeillet Parfait'.
Their HelpMeFind listing shows they do carry 'Oeillet Flamand' (Damask)
