The opening of the rose planting season brings again the everlasting problem what roses to plant. There is a rose for every position, but one of the best varieties is Maman Cochet. Either the pink or the White Maman Cochet, makes a good serviceable rose, that will thrive in any aspect, and will produce an abundant supply of choice blooms the greater part of the year. The writer knows of two Mamans, a white and a pink, growing in almost total shade, where they produce really good blooms, and both bushes are free from mildew or any symptoms of the fungus diseases that usually attack roses grown in such retirement. The Maman Cochets are vigorous growers, making a big bush, and should be grown only where they have plenty of room. They have weak stems which make them unsuitable as cut flowers, and they lack perfume.

p45 Editor [T. A. Stewart] In the year 1896, A. Marshall, of Queensland, produced a White Maman Cochet sport from Maman Cochet. Unfortunately for Mr. Marshall, a similar sport was sent out by Cook in America in 1897 but there is undisputed evidence that it was growing to perfection in Queensland two years before being sent out in America. It does wonderfully well in Queensland and about 95 per cent of the plants grown there are from Marshall’s original sport. However, Australians will not grudge America the credit of producing this great Rose, and consequently we have not included it in the Australian record.

p141 Mr. Alister Clark of “Glenara”, Bulla Vic. Draws attention, and we think rightly so, to the injustice of the present practice of giving credit to those discovering climbing sports of having raised them:
The idea of giving the finder of a climbing sport the credit of having raised it is surely not right or equitable, and I feel that we have no right to claim as Australian Roses the climbing sports that have been found here. The fact that White Maman Cochet, as well as other Roses sported in several places about the same time, surely shows that the climbing form was latent in the original seedling, and although great credit is due to whoever first notices these sports, it does not entitle the finder to be styled the raiser. It would be just as reasonable for the trainer who discovered that his racehorse could jump fences to call himself the breeder of it.

Tea Roses
These are the original Everblooming Roses, from which the Hybrid Teas... have descended. They are less hardy and need careful protection in severe climates, but they bloom more freely. These Roses are best suited to the warmer parts of the country, and southern planters should rely upon them to a large extent because of their continuous bloom, resistance to disease, and their great beauty of flower. In the North they make fine pot plants.
Maman Cochet White. Tea. (J. Cook, 1896.) A white form of Maman Cochet, but often flushed with pink on the outer petals. Foliage equally good and the plant just as hardy and free flowering.
One of the very best Teas for northern gardens. The blooms are seldom imperfect and the stems are strong for cutting.

Cochet, White Maman.  Tea.  The flowers are of enormous size, remarkably round and full; pure, clear, snowy white throughout when grown under glass; when grown out-of-doors it grows slightly pink, like Bride, but the pink only adds to its beauty.  It is delightfully tea-scented, and is a reliable bedding Rose.  Strong grower.
