The Garden vol 55, p. 329 (May 13, 1899)
Rose Etoile de Lyon.—For culture under glass this Rose is held in great esteem. The blossoms may have a ragged appearance on the outside, but they are so double and so perfectly formed that this small defect is easily overlooked. The colour is a clear bright yellow, a shade or two paler than in Marechal Niel or Perle des Jardins. Perhaps it more nearly approaches in colour an old Rose now almost gone out of cultivation, named Coquette de Lyon. The growth of Etoile de Lyon is vigorous, the wood stout, the foliage bold and handsome, but rather addicted to mildew. This is most unfortunate in a Rose that is as hardy as any Tea I know. It is not a success outdoors unless it be upon walls, but no one would regret planting it upon a wall; indeed, this seems the best way to grow such very double Roses as the above, Marie Guillot, Smith's Yellow and a few others, and for preference I would select one with a western aspect! This Rose is much appreciated in the United States, where it is looked upon as being the very finest yellow variety for the garden. One could wish some raiser would introduce a really reliable rich yellow garden Rose suitable for Great Britain.—P.
