(1874) Page(s) 40. Meeting Feb. 28, 1874 Joseph Tailby having on exhibition buds of the new rose, Eliza Tailby, was called on to state its origin and characteristics. He replied that it originated in a sport of the Isabella Sprunt. As compared with the parent, the plant is shorter jointed, and blooms more freely. It is nearly thornless, and the foliage is more pleasing, resembling that of a spiraea or willow. The flower is of a lighter shade of color, the buds and petals are longer, the petals are squarer and of more even thickness, the bud opens differently, and the general character bears more resemblance to the Yellow Tea than does the Isabella Sprunt. It has not been cultivated by any other person than himself.
(1874) Page(s) 32. April 26 A Tea rose, named Eliza Tailby, a sport from Isabella Sprunt, was shown by Joseph Tailby. It has the appearance of being a very free bloomer; the petal of the flower is very distinctly veined, like the leaf, which is long and willow-shaped, the wood being nearly thornless.
(1888) Page(s) 139. Étienne Levet (Levet, 1871) Fine carmine red; of remarkably cupped shape, free bloomer; one of the best, and a good forcing variety.
