Listing last updated on Wed Aug 2024
ruelle Saint-Martin Le Mans, Sarthe 72100 France
[From The Old Rose Informant, by Brent C. Dickerson, p. 33: Vibert wrote in 1824:] the 'Oeillet' rose [was] for many years announced as having been found at Mantes, coming from a degenerated Centifolia. The fact of the matter is that this rose, which originated more than thirty-five years ago [c. 1790], was grown at Le Mans, from a crop of Centifolia seed... Monsieur Poilpré, grower at Le Mans was the first to propagate this rose, from which he obtained the Centifolias 'Anémone' and 'Sans Pétales'...
[From Rosetum Gallicum, by Narcisse Desportes, 1828, p. 124:] POILPRÉ, ruelle Saint-Martin, au Mans (Sarthe).
[From Le Bon Jardinier, 1833, p. 858] Poilpré, ruelle Saint-Martin, au Mans (Sarthe).
