Book (1828) Page(s) tab 36. Includes photo(s). ROSA centifolia: Varietates. Varieties of the Hundred-leaved Rose.
SPECIFIC CHARACTER. Roses with nearly round seed-buds and peduncles hispid; stem and petioles hispid and prickly; leaves winged; leaflets ovate, and villose beneath; flowers of a purple colour; blossoms double, or crowded with petals.
These variations of the centifolia species were delineated from plants in the Hammersmith collection. The variety with the most numerous petals is called The early Italian. Wherefore it is so called, not being a native of Italy, we are at a loss to guess : in other collections it most probably bears various appellations. To reconcile the contradictory epithets by which different cultivators may designate them, would be not only difficult, but altogether useless. [Fascicle number not known]
