Thomas considers it to be a Gallica hybrid. One of the richest coloured Gallica hybrids. Probably owing some of its being to the China Rose, on account of its smooth stems and leaves. Named after the famous seventeenth-century prelate and statesman. Flower: unequalled in its depth of velvety grape-purple on the front of the petals, backed by lilac pink, button eye, almost white center. Prune away weak wood after flowering and reduce lanky shoots in February.
