The Journal of the Horticultural Society of London 2: 316 (1847) 33. Rosa Anemoneflora. Fortune.* Found in the gardens of Shanghai. As far as any opinion can be formed respecting the species of Rose, this would seem to be really a new form, approaching R. moschata in its habit and united styles, but distinct in its narrow acuminated leaflets, usually three, and in its hairless calyx. The flowers are small and clustered as in R. moschata, and, in the plants brought to Europe, have small rounded petals, forming a kind of cup to an infinite number of narrow, ragged, confused bodies, which result from the deformation of the stamens. Their colour is pale blush, and they have little beauty, but the plant may prove useful as a breeder if any perfect stamens or pistils are ever produced by it. " July 1, 1847.
* R. anemoneflora; (systyla) glabra, scandens, ramulis parcè setigeris et glandulosis, foliis 3-natis (raro pinnatis), foliolis ovato-lanceolatis acuminatis argutè serratis subtùs glaucis petiolis aculeolatis, stipulis angustissimis integris margine subglandulosis apice libera subulatis, tubo calycis sepalisque subintegris glaberrimis.—J. L.

I want to point out that the R. Triphylla, that we grow in the nursery's Roses Piedimonte, has flourished in the fall, not the blazing paragonable bloom of spring. Every plant has been cultivated by us at least 2-3 flowers, speak to Piata grown in small containers of 19. thanks

I believe it is both a misspelling and a synonym of at least two different species and maybe three. Rosa laevigata is the most likely - - three-leaved.
The accepted spelling is Rosa triphylla. The name was used at least two times variously, for Rosa laevigata and for Rosa anemoniflora. Sorry for the uninformative entry, which I will try to address. The correct synonyms are: Rosa triphylla Roxburgh = R. anemoniflora or R. laevigata as explained at different times Rosa triphylla Wall. = R. sinica Ait. which is itself a synonym of R. laevigata
