The rose known in Australia as the Tea ‘Mme. Charles’ is a large bush with long canes and masses of small-to-medium semi-double flowers in shades of pink, apricot, fawn and white.  It does not match the apricot Tea bred by Damaizin in 1864, which was described by Foster-Melliar in 1902 as “an improved strain of Safrano”.  This imposter is in commerce in Australia and elsewhere as the China ‘Duke of York’, bred by W. Paul in 1894, and overseas it is also sold as ‘Papillon’.

[This rose was sent out from Sangerhausen in the early 1980s to Rumsey Roses, NSW and possibly to world-wide nurseries, under the name Mme Charles]

..... 'Francis Dubreuil' had disappeared from nurserymen's lists in Australia by the mid 1940s but a rose of this name was among budwood imported from Sangerhausen in 1981 by the Rumseys. The "Francis Dubreuil" widely grown in Australia today has come from this source, rather than from bushes surviving in Gardens.....

The bush is tall, strong, spreading and virtually thornless.....
‘G. Nabonnand’, on the other hand, was said to have long, pointed buds and large upstanding petals of pale rose, flushed yellow.  The blooms were not very full and were held upright on a tall  vigorous bush with fine foliage.  Flowering was profuse and the rose was especially good in winter.  All of which perfectly describes our rose, whose thornlessness was noted by Walter Easlea when writing about decorative Teas in 1919.  Tracing the history of ‘Jean Ducher’ and ‘G. Nabonnand’ in Australia has been fascinating.  In the mid 1990s, Heritage Roses in Australia members Rose Marsh and John Viska alerted us that roses purchased many years ago as ‘G. Nabonnand’ were still flourishing in Western Australia and were the same as the rose being sold as ‘Jean Ducher’. 

....So how could the name 'Jean Ducher' have come to be attached to the rose 'G. Nabonnand'?  The story goes back to 1961..... Later comparison of the Hargreaves’ [W.A.] find and the New Zealand ‘Jean Ducher’ indicated that the two were identical.

‘Mme. de Tartas’ has not been found so far on any early Australian nursery or garden lists.[*]  The rose sold as ‘Mme. de Tartas’ in Australia today was collected, unnamed, in country Victoria in the early 1990s and given its study name, which is no longer thought to be correct. A very similar rose is growing at Sydney’s Rookwood Cemetery; where it is known as Isobel Smith”.
