Everblooming Roses
The so-called Everblooming Roses include the Hybrid Tea and Pernetiana groups. They do not bloom all the time, but if kept healthy and growing steadily, one crop of flowers succeeds another at brief intervals.
Comte G. De Rochemur. Hybrid Tea. (A. Schwartz, 1912.) Bright scarlet and vermilion double flowers of excellent form and large size, with particularly fine perfume. Unusually prolific, of good, strong growth, and not especially subject to the usual Rose diseases.
Extraordinary blooming qualities for a red Rose of so fine form. Color is darker than General MacArthur, and it does not bleach so badly in hot weather, although it blues to some extent.

Comte G. de Rochemur (A. Schwartz, 1911): bright red which does not blue; blooms in big sprays, and is quite often good enough for cutting. It does not stop blooming in the summer as so many red roses do.

"New Roses for the Garden" by Charles E. F. Gersdorff

Red Roses are plentiful; reds which do not "blue" are scarce. Some new shades have been added to this group. [...] Comte G. de Rochemur (Schwartz, 1912) from France, is an extra fine bloomer, medium large in size, in color a fiery scarlet, tinted with vermilion, but "bluing" as it ages; fragrant and an average grower.

Le Concours d'Apports de Juin....
M. Schwartz, rosiériste, 230, route de Vienne, au Moulin-à-Vent, par Vénissieux (Rhône), exposait une intéressante collection de 60 variétés, parmi lesquelles un certain nombre étaient des semis obtenus par sa maison au cours de ces dernières années. Nous citerons parmi ces nouveautés : Julia Bartet, hybride de Thé, pétales jaunes à revers rougeâtre passant au rose en s’épanouissant ; Comte de Rochemude, rouge cerise : Commandant L. Bartre, rose vif ; Roger Lambelin, pétales un peu récurvés, rouges, marginés de blanc ; Victor Hugo, d’un rouge extrêmement brillant. Les autres variétés de la collection comprenaient quelques-unes de celles déjà notées dans le lot de M. Meilland ; nous y ajouterons : Rayon dé Or, jaune cuivré ; Louise-Catherine Breslau, rouge corail ; Cissie Easlea, jaune rosé; Louise Baldwin, jaune abricoté.
