'Comte de Paris' rose Reviews & Comments
HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.
Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.
We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.
Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..
We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.
As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

The Journal of Horticulture in Australia, 1909, which has many inaccuracies, gives Dalhunty as a synonym.

The rose garden (1848) Division 2, 132-133 By William Paul Tea-Roes may be divided into two classes: "Ligneous*," represented by Comte de Paris, and "Herbaceous," of which we may instance the Yellow. The former, which are marked †, are far hardier than the others and form good Standards. If the latter are grown as such, they must be thoroughly protected during the winter.
*The words "Ligneous" and "Herbaceous" are not used in their strict botanical sense, but to distinguish the two races.

What do the words, Madame Pean 1844, mean in the 1893 Ellwanger reference for 'Comte de Paris'?

The format of Ellwanger's listing is numbered, in two columns.
On the left, the "Variety, Habit of Growth, and Class" Comte de Paris, mod. [moderate] or dwf. [dwarf] T. [Tea]
On the right, the "Description" including raiser/breeder/introducer and year followed by a description.: Madame Pean [raiser/breeder/introducer], 1844. Flesh color, large flowers.

Thanks Cass. I couldn't relate that back to Hardy, but now I see "introduced by Pean".

It may be the other way around too - bred by Pean and introduced by Hardy.
