A mysterious case: There is no French family name like Labutère, Labulatière, la Bulatière, Labutène, therefore also no such General. The rose 'Général Labutère' first appears in Graveraux' collection between 1900 and 1902. I am afraid he was rich and undiscerning, amassing all roses he could get his hand on. I think someone must have cheated him with this China, adding an unusual name. We might eventually find out it is something out of the Cramoisi Supérieur group.
