'Baron Adolphe de Rothschild' rose Reviews & Comments

The early color descriptions of Lacharme's 'Baron Adolphe de Rothschild' are fiery red or deep red. In the mid 1880s, the color purple entered the descriptions and has remained so ever sense. This change suggests to me that we may not have the original rose in commerce.

The description has been changed to "red, shaded purple". The photos and the nursery listings all belonged to the pink 'Baronne A. de Rothschild' by Pernet (1868). They have been reassigned to the correct listing. Lacharme's red Baron does not seem to exist anywhere.
