"Rose de Barneville" (Paris, France, june 2006)
I am not sure about its identification as "Gaspard Monge", but it is the closest I could find to mine, which I first discovered under an old yew in my garden in Normandy, about 17 years ago. This one, I called "Rose de Barneville", forms an open bush, up to 1,30 m, with long and flexible branches, quite thornless, with bright green foliage, of medium to large size, and numerous buds of globular form, which bloom one month long between may and june, in a very double cup form of deep pink, with silver shading on the outside and lilac inside, with a strong typical fragrance of Centifolia. It is very vigorous and has a great tendency to produce suckers. It may be subject to rust, and a part of its buds often rot before opening, as it seems to be for "Gaspard Monge". It may be different in a Mediterranean climate, I don't know. My "Rose de Barneville" is most probably a Centifolia and seems very close to "Gaspard Monge". If a botanist is interested, I have several specimens of it. The larger rose, on the right, is "Comte de Chambord".
