Philip Robinson Examines the Damask Perpetuals

Comte de Chambord - in commerce (possibly 'Mme Boll')

(2007) Page(s) 53.

Unfortunately, Pergolèse (Moreau et Robert, 1860), Comte de Chambord (Moreau et Robert 1860), Marie Robert (Moreau et Robert, circa 1860?), Jacques Cartier (Moreau-Robert, 1868), and Rembrandt (Moreau-Robert, 1883) all seem to be wrongly named.....Mme. Boll (D. Boll/Boyau, 1859) is the correct name for Comte de Chambord.

De la Grifferaie

(2007) Page(s) 53-54.

Unfortunately, Pergolèse (Moreau et Robert, 1860), Comte de Chambord (Moreau et Robert 1860), Marie Robert (Moreau et Robert, circa 1860?), Jacques Cartier (Moreau-Robert, 1868), and Rembrandt (Moreau-Robert, 1883) all seem to be wrongly named.....De la Grifferaie (Vibert, 1845) is the rather egregious impostor that I have received and seen in photographs that purports to be Marie Robert.

Jacques Cartier

(2007) Page(s) 53-54.

Unfortunately, Pergolèse (Moreau et Robert, 1860), Comte de Chambord (Moreau et Robert 1860), Marie Robert (Moreau et Robert, circa 1860?), Jacques Cartier (Moreau-Robert, 1868), and Rembrandt (Moreau-Robert, 1883) all seem to be wrongly named.....Jacques Cartier is likely the Hybrid Perpetual Marchesa Boccella (Desprez/Cochet, 1840), despite a rather faint protest from Graham Thomas.

Madame Boll

(2007) Page(s) 53.

Unfortunately, Pergolèse (Moreau et Robert, 1860), Comte de Chambord (Moreau et Robert 1860), Marie Robert (Moreau et Robert, circa 1860?), Jacques Cartier (Moreau-Robert, 1868), and Rembrandt (Moreau-Robert, 1883) all seem to be wrongly named.....Mme. Boll (D. Boll/Boyau, 1859) is the correct name for Comte de Chambord.

Marie de St. Jean

(2007) Page(s) 54.

Marie de St. Jean (Damaizin, 1869) seems to have been introduced a Hybrid Perpetual, but the present plant fits neatly into the Damask Perpetuals with but few allowances for some China influence.

Marie Robert (Damask Perp., Robert & Moreau, 1860)

(2007) Page(s) 53-54.

Unfortunately, Pergolèse (Moreau et Robert, 1860), Comte de Chambord (Moreau et Robert 1860), Marie Robert (Moreau et Robert, circa 1860?), Jacques Cartier (Moreau-Robert, 1868), and Rembrandt (Moreau-Robert, 1883) all seem to be wrongly named.....De la Grifferaie (Vibert, 1845) is the rather egregious impostor that I have received and seen in photographs that purports to be Marie Robert.

Pergolèse (gallica, Unknown, 1840)

(2007) Page(s) 53.

Unfortunately, Pergolèse (Moreau et Robert, 1860), Comte de Chambord (Moreau et Robert 1860), Marie Robert (Moreau et Robert, circa 1860?), Jacques Cartier (Moreau-Robert, 1868), and Rembrandt (Moreau-Robert, 1883) all seem to be wrongly named. The false Pergolèse is of typical Gallica persuasion and never reblooms.

Rembrandt (Portland, Moreau-Robert, 1883)

(2007) Page(s) 53-54.

Unfortunately, Pergolèse (Moreau et Robert, 1860), Comte de Chambord (Moreau et Robert 1860), Marie Robert (Moreau et Robert, circa 1860?), Jacques Cartier (Moreau-Robert, 1868), and Rembrandt (Moreau-Robert, 1883) all seem to be wrongly named.....Our Rembrandt is a Hybrid Perpetual and should be classed as such even if correctly identified.
