Notes:

'Armide' in commerce is most probably not the original (colour). Member Nastarana states it is identical to 'Mme Plantier'.
Lloyd Brace of The Roseraie at Bayfields says this rose has very double slightly blushed white blooms... it may repeat in late summer due to a China influence in its breeding, which may also affect its hardiness...
