[One of the 65 climbing roses Stephen Scanniello describes in detail in his book and that grows in the Cranford Rose Garden at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. There are several pages devoted to this rose, including its history, cultivation, and a photograph. Here are some highlights, but please refer to the book for more details.]

The first multiflora hybrid produced in the United States… created in 1888 by Jackson Dawson at the Arnold Arboretum in Massachusetts.

Page 5: The most notable wichuraiana hybrid at the turn of the century. This rambler, with huge clusters of pink flowers quickly eclipsed 'Crimson Rambler' in popularity.
Page 89: Dorothy Perkins Jackson & Perkins, 1901. R. wichuraiana x 'Mme. Gabriel Luizet'... the first truly successful rambler... a vigorous, hardy rose... Until the introduction of 'Dorothy Perkins' no climber with such abundant blooms would thrive in northern climates... [easily trainable]... [planted at Elizabeth Park in Hartford, Connecticut (America's first municpal rose garden established in 1904)]... considered a great improvement over the once all-popular 'Crimson Rambler' because it was more resistant to mildew... developed by E. Alvin Miller, foreman and plant propagator at Jackson & Perkins, and it was named for the granddaughter of the founder of the company... From the time of its introduction until the shift to large-flowered, everblooming climbers in the 1930s, 'Dorothy Perkins' was the most popular climbing rose in America, if not the world... instrumental in the creation of early floribundas, which were known as hybrid polyantha.'Ellen Poulsen' and 'Johanna Tantau' are two examples.

Page 7: [When it was intoduced it] was particularly significant because of the large size of its flowers... 'Dr. W. Van Fleet' and other Van Fleet hybrids also differ from ramblers because they have heavier, stiffer canes. They exemplify the type of roses now classed as "climbers".

Page 207: A great deal of information about this rose. This rose was introduced in France in 1987 as 'Pierre de Ronsard', but it was brought out in this country by Conard-Pyle in 1988 as 'Eden' ... it resembles a climbing centifolia ... huge blooms ... delicious fragrance reminiscent of teas and damasks ... [blooms] throughout the summer ... above-average disease-resistance.
