    The name seems to be 'Crimson Damask' (with possibly 'Single Crimson Damask' as a hidden synonym?)
    The 2007 reference lists Turner as the breeder.

    As does the Rosenlexikon of 1936.

    Trevor Griffith lists Crimson Damask in his book, "The Book of Classic Old Roses" (p.45). He describes it "as one of the few single Damask roses. Medium-to-large sized flowers of carmine and purplish red. Fragrant." A photo is also included.

    Thanks! People forget HMF is also a collection of references. We greatly appreciate specific reference quotes like this. Thanks again.
