'Le Grand Capitain' 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.

Here in Florida this has a strong fragrance, even in the hot summer months.

Strong fragrance in PA also, though blooming in the shade. Reminds me a lot of Eugene Beauharnais in flower form and fragrance.

M. LACHARME (A LA GUILLOTIÉRE, RUE DE LA CROIX, 18).
M. LACHARME, successeur de M. PLANTIER, a exposé une collection de Roses qui a fixé l'attention générale. En voici les espèces nouvelles; elles étaient disposées sur un petit gradin portatif, qu'un amateur distingué de notre ville avait bien voulu prêter.
Grand Capitaine. (Cramoisi pourpre. 1838.)

The Gardeners' Chronicle. Feb. 18, 1843. p. 100
THE ROSE GARDEN.—No. IV.
“Z”
One of the best, and nearly the first, raised from the type [Gloire de Rosamene], is well known as Le grand Capitaine, with flowers of equal brilliancy, but more double than those of its parent. It is to be regretted that it has not the same peculiar luxuriance of habit; but this we have in an eminent degree in Enfant d'Ajaccio, lately raised at Lyons, having flowers nearly or quite double, with the fine laciniated foliage and robust habit of Gloire de Rosamene, and, above all, possessed of fragrance in a high degree.

One tough rose. Great scent, wonderful blooms that are marked with a darker color in cooler climates. Small stature and seems to be happy in a container for me.
