“Sarah Moon” (A Form Of ‘Maman Cochet’ S. Cochet, 1893) In 1897, Sarah and Alfonso Moon buried their infant son in Ventura’s City Cemetery (St. Mary’s). Leaving the cemetery, Sarah took with her a cutting from a nearby rose. Sarah must have had a green thumb, for her cutting grew into a healthy plant, which still thrives on the family property. The rose seems to be a variant of ‘Maman Cochet’ (Tea, Scipion Cochet, 1893). It looks at times like ‘Maman Cochet.’ At other times, it blooms as ‘White Maman Cochet’ (1896) or as ‘Niles Cochet’ (1906). Sarah’s Great Grandson,Walt Klement shared Sarah’s rose with the Gold Coast HRG.
