The only mention of "Madame Buzeau" I can find is in the Bulletin: Société d'horticulture du département de Seineet-Oise, p. 148, 1844, where it is listed as a Tea.

Could this be Madame Buréau?

"The Old White China, of which I have often spoken, is by far the best of them all for a white bed; Clara Sylvain is the next best white, and Madame Bureau the third best white. These three would make a bed, planted in the order I have them here, Madame on the outside, Clara next, and the old one in the centre.

The Book of Roses, p. 164, 1866
Francis Parkman
Madame Bureau is white, with a faint tinge of straw-color.

'Madame Bureau' seems certainly to be the correct name, thank you! Buzeau was probably a typo.
