Vivaio Fior di Rosa (which inherited the legacy of La Campanella) describes its Serratipetala as "molto rifiorente" -- re-blooming very well.

In one of the 1836 references, the following book is cited: "Rosen-Sammlung der neuesten und schönsten aus Frankreich, England, Belgien und Deutschland bezogenen, in unseren Gärten cultivirten Rosen". 1. Centurie. 1.-3. Lief. (Jede mit 10 color. Steintaf. ohne Text.) Düsseldorf, Arnz. u. Comp. I have run across reference to this work elsewhere (in an 1835 publication), but can't seem to find a copy online or elsewhere of it. It would be particularly interesting in relation to 'Fimbriata', as it supposedly has an illustration of that much-discussed rose! Has anyone seen a copy of the book, or the illustration in question, and/or could anyone provide me with a link to either (book or illustration, or indeed other rose illustrations from the book)?

Per the paper linked below (in Table 4, beginning on the paper's page 28), this rose is triploid. I am cross-posting this comment on all others mentioned which do not already have their ploidies mentioned in their descriptions.

I wonder if I have been a little bit too hasty here in changing my rose listing to read: ‘Bella di Monza’ – came as ‘Serratipetala’.
In the 'Bella di Monza' page, Ca Berta's leaf is certainly more linear with bluer tones and possibly a different texture to my leaves. And her receptacle is more sloping than my blocky, straight-sided receptacle. The bud seems the same and the stipules are identical.

Patricia, is the petiole of serratipetala armed with prickles well up the central leaflet? In Bella di Monza these prickles (that you can see in two photos posted) last for a long time.

Apologies for delay. I've been back and back to the bush looking at prickles. No firm conclusions. There are many leaves with no prickles under. However, the majority seem to have prickles up to the start of the end leaflet, but I did find two leaves with a prickle about midway on the end leaflet.
