Rose Listing Omission
'Feroxia'
Gallica / Hybrid Tea 'Feroxia' bred in 2020 by Guillaume Epinal (a rose amateur in Le Mans, France). This a crossing between the gallica 'Plantagenêt' (Vibert II, 2002) and the English rose 'Golden Celebration' (Austin, 1992). A once blooming, Spring, shrub (100 cm and more), with semi-lustreous dark green leaves, wood canes have large red sickle-shaped prickles. Cupped flowers are medium in size, double, not completely full, petals have two colors : above dark rose near red cherry in color, under yellow amber. There is a little fruity fragrance.

Hello Jedmar, my apologies for being so long to reply. 'Feroxia' is a new rose I raised from seed, so there isn't much litterature elsewhere on this variety.

The reason for my question was that HMF mostly bases its listings on published information, even from social media. Is the book "Rosomanes et Rose au Mans" from you?

Yes Jedmar, we (my father and I) are authors of this book. It is a historical study on the French Rosomania from Le Mans. There are plenty of unpublished documents inside, dating from the 1820's decade, and in addition all datas on Jean-Pierre Vibert II works.

Ordering your book is difficult. Impossible to create an account at Librarie Doucet.

Dear Jedmar, If you are interested to buy a copy, it would be easier indeed to ask me directly. As an author I have few copies in stock and I can send you one at your postal address. This price of the book is 25€, and shipping (La Poste prices for zone 1, below 2kg, European Union and Switzerland, books and brochures, would be 4,34€). So total is estimated about 29,34€

Newly planted this summer in zone 7b, south NJ USA, and it's established quickly. Very healthy foliage (I have bad black spot in this area) and it hasn't been affected at all. Beautiful, rich color with varying clusters and single roses that are fragrant and last ~3-4 days. This is the third of the True Bloom roses I've tried, and they have all done very well for me.
