'Galatea' 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.

Does this variety indeed still exist, alive, in the Bentalls collection (see tab "Gardens")? I have a perfervid wish that 'Galatea' be propagated and again available commercially. (Perhaps at least a photo could be obtained...?)

The Garden - Volume 79 - Page 525 (1915)

Galatea (Perpetual Climber).— Like a double form of Moonlight. There does not appear to be any room for a Rose of this description, and those who will plant it will be very limited in number. Roses of this class must be perfectly distinct and attractive to command public attention, and we shall soon be overburdened with them unless discretion is employed by raisers.
