location 118/1, R. centifolia 'Minor' hort, 'POMPON DES DAMES?, 'PETITE DE HOLLANDE', GALLICANAE, Netherlands, ca. 1800, soft pink, well double, fragrant, medium size, bushy, branched, 1 m, light-medium green medium size, matte-glossy, 5 leaflets

De Bordeaux (R. centifolia minor). Flower rose pink, darker in centre, much cupped, in bunches from four to six, almost as large as the old Cabbage. Pedicel and hip smooth. Calyx long, narrow, glanded, tips beyond bud. Leaves small for size of flower, bright green, paler and downy below. Wood pale red, very short straight thorns. This is a dwarf but not a miniature Rose, as Redoute, whose description I quote, says, its first flowers are often almost as large as the old Cabbage Rose. It makes suckers freely and these must be removed annually or flowers will decrease in size. There were many forms of this known in Redoute's day, White, Foliacee, Kingston, Mossy, Early, Des Princes and Rose fonce. I have not yet been able to find any of these, but hope that inclusion here may perhaps bring some to light. It is figured by Redoute and had as synonym 'Gros pompom de Bordeaux, Pompom a grands fleurs, a centifeuilles nain'.
