Vivaio Fior di Rosa (which inherited the legacy of La Campanella) describes its Serratipetala as "molto rifiorente" -- re-blooming very well.

In one of the 1836 references, the following book is cited: "Rosen-Sammlung der neuesten und schönsten aus Frankreich, England, Belgien und Deutschland bezogenen, in unseren Gärten cultivirten Rosen". 1. Centurie. 1.-3. Lief. (Jede mit 10 color. Steintaf. ohne Text.) Düsseldorf, Arnz. u. Comp. I have run across reference to this work elsewhere (in an 1835 publication), but can't seem to find a copy online or elsewhere of it. It would be particularly interesting in relation to 'Fimbriata', as it supposedly has an illustration of that much-discussed rose! Has anyone seen a copy of the book, or the illustration in question, and/or could anyone provide me with a link to either (book or illustration, or indeed other rose illustrations from the book)?

Per the paper linked below (in Table 4, beginning on the paper's page 28), this rose is triploid. I am cross-posting this comment on all others mentioned which do not already have their ploidies mentioned in their descriptions.
