New Cultivars Selected from Seedlings old Old-fashioned Roses. By June and Brian Morley
1. R. cv. 'Marie Nordlinger`
This selection after four years appears to have a dwarf habit, about 70 cm tall, but shoots and foliage like "Henri Martin" except that it lacks moss; there are thorns and glands on the flower pedicel, and the leaf undersides are pubescent. The flowers are smaller than "Henri Martin", 4 to 5 cm in diameter, but are semi-double, with muddled-eye and stamens just visible. The flowers are rose pink, and fade paler pink uniformly.
Origin of name: Marie Nordlinger — an English woman and artist whose friendship with Proust corresponded to the period of the writer's interest in the works of John Ruskin.
