Page 177: Rousselet started a rose-world -- already surfeited we would think, -- with 'Général Jacqueminot' in 1853.
Pages 186-187: Général Jacqueminot
... himself the head of a great company... raised by an amateur named Roussel... introduced by Rousselet, his gardener, in 1853... brilliant scarlet-crimson, richly fragrant... a shy bloomer in autumn...
Page 188: Général Jacqueminot was the progenitor of certain roses which became "types" or family heads in the subdivision of the race...
-- 'Sénateur Vaisse', 1859... headed a group distinguished for size and fulness and especially for fine form
-- 'Prince Camille de Rohan', 1861, type of the darkest and most velvety
-- 'Alfred Colomb', 1865... [head of] a group of larger, fuller, globular roses, extremely fragrant and better bloomer sthan th eparent
-- 'Duke of Edinburgh', 1868... very beautiful roses, requiring ideal conditions, lacking substance and scent of the parent
-- 'Charles Lefebvre', 1861, the convergence of two lines, 'La Reine' and 'Général Jacqueminot', a type of rose of thick petals, very velvety and rich in color... given to fading quickly...

The British Pharmacopoeia directs that Red Rose petals are to be obtained only from R. gallica, of which, however, there are many variations, in fact there are practically no pure R. gallica now to be had, only hybrids, so that the exact requirements of the British Pharmacopoeia are difficult to follow. Those used in medicine and generally appearing in commerce are actually any scented roses of a deep red colour, or when dried of a deep rose tint. The main point is that the petals suitable for medicinal purposes must yield a deep rose-coloured and somewhat astringent and fragrant infusion when boiling water is poured upon them. The most suitable are the so-called Hybrid Perpetuals, flowering from June to October, among which may be specially recommended the varieties: Eugène Furst, deep dark red, sweet-scented. General Jacqueminot, a fine, rich crimson, scented rose. Hugh Dickson, rather a large petalled one, but of a fine, deep red colour and sweetscented. Ulrich Brunner, bright-red. Richmond, deep crimson-red. Liberty, scarlet-red.

The Old Roses
So much do we think of the Good Old Roses, growing more popular each year in spite of their antiquity, that we list them here by themselves.  Many of these are no longer in commerce but, recognizing their merits as well as their rich associations, we grow more of them each year.  We love and respect them.
