The 1934 Lambert catalog (p. 45) has this as: "Derived from ["Stammt von"] Druschki. Very long pointed bud, pure white, shaded with carmine red, solitary on thornless stem, well filled; grows very strongly, blooms continuously.” "Stammt von" just means "derived from"; it's not necessarily a sport.

This photo is of the Kordes climber Quick Silver, not the Jack Christensen hybrid tea Quicksilvee. Admin, please move these two photos to the correct listing.

Introduction date should be changed to 1882: Bonnet himself is advertising 24 "strikings" of the rose in question as being available (see Gardeners’ Chronicle, vol. 18, 1882, p. 801).

Breeding year modified, thank you! We have also added several references stating that this rose is 'Zéphirine Drouhin', re-introduced under a new name. What is your opinion on this?

The first thing that occurs to me is that ZD has growth to 10' and more, while 'Charles Bonnet' was stated to be of low or medium growth.

Yes, Sangerhausen's catalogues show difference in height and fragrance - for all its worth. The two roses were planted in the same area 1962-2005, but ZD seems to have been moved by 2011 to the Sondergarten (Special garden). Both roses have been in SGH in 1936. Unfortunately we have no photos of CB.

Purchased twice, from 2 different vendors, and both have died before my eyes, while almost all of my other roses are doing OK. Emphasis - died, not sickly and weak, just DIED.
