[From "The Marchioness of Lorne", by Darrel g.h. Schramm, pp. 6-8]
The ‘Marchioness’, introduced in 1889, is gowned in a rich and vibrant rose color that purples with age but at times tends toward magenta. A healthy rose and a strong recurrent bloomer, this perfumed rarity grows to about four erect feet, a narrow bush producing bouquets of blooms more steadily and for a longer time than most Hybrid Perpetuals. Most definitely it is one of my favorite twelve roses.
The rose is named for Princess Louise Caroline Alberta (1848-1939), sixth child and fourth daughter of Prince Albert and Queen Victoria, perhaps the most interesting of the nine siblings. Not only was she a painter and a sculptor, but she was also a liberal who supported the suffragist movement and Irish home rule. Loved by the populace, she was considered “the people’s princess.”

Hybrid Perpetual Roses.
Marchioness of Lorne
The blossoms of this plant are rich rose, with a pleasant fragrance. Remarkably free-flowering, the blossoms are full, large and handsomely cupped. The buds are long, with a touch of grace that adds individuality, and with a graceful curve toward the end. The bush grows strong and vigorous. Because of the freedom of flowering this is one of the most desirable of the Roses to cultivate. One is assured of blossoms when the other Roses may be resting from their labors.
