White Lady (Hybrid Tea-scented) Flowers creamy white, with large magnolia-like petals, very double, form cupped. This we believe to be the best of all the white or light coloured sorts from Lady Mary Fitzwilliam.

Frances E. Willard has been erroneously considered a synonym of Marie Guillot and President Cleveland. See references.
