Jacqui Davies. Discovering Gallicas at Araluen.
As Pat Toolan wrote in her recent review of the book Historical Roses: in the Europa- Rosarium Sangerhausen, 2020. “The photos are of such quality and size that they will help identify found roses in these classes"......The many descriptions and photographs in it are a wonderful reference and have made me question whether Nestor and Orpheline de Juillet in Araluen are correctly named.

Orpheline de Juillet. Gallica – syns ‘July’s Orphan’. ‘Orpheline Juillet’. The breeder is unknown. But it first appeared in Vibert’s (France) catalog of 1836. It is a once-flowering only but has a strong fragrance. The name perhaps refers to a late flowering habit, meaning that it flowers later than some of the Old Roses. Parentage unknown. Zones 4-9.

Orpheline de Juillet. Syn ‘July’s Orphan’. Old. Gallica. Mauve. The flowers of this rose are large and very double, and are crimson-purple shading to bright red in the center. It has an upright, rather tall and moderately vigorous growth habit. This is not a conventional Gallica as it has some Damask characteristics. The reason for the name is unclear. William Paul mentions it in The Rose Garden (1848), but he was not the raiser as it was listed in Vibert’s catalogue in 1836. Zones 4-9. Pre-1836. Parentage unknown.

Orpheline de Juillet Before 1836... English sources frequently attribute this rose to William Paul and assign the date 1848, which is the same year Paul published The Rose Garden. However Joyaux questions this due to its French name and the fact that it was listed in Vibert's catalog of 1836... The blooms are double, quartered and purple -- but the color is changeable, as the flowers fade they assume a darker shade of purple... the plant has some Gallica characteristics, but Joyaux feels it could be a Damask hybrid...

(France) Before 1837. Description and vital statistics. Probably related to the Damasks. Large, fully double flowers of crimson-purple turning to fiery red in the centre... Similar to 'Belle de Crecy', but deeper in colour.
