We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Jean Cherpin (Journal des Roses et des Vergers, 1855) a écrit ce qui suit à propos de ces variétés :
Le premier Rosier moussu remontant fut, sans doute, le Quatre-Saisons, à fleurs blanches, semi-doubles. Nous ne pensons pas que l’art ait coopéré à sa fécondation, car son bois et sa manière particulière de végéter indiquent une création spontanée, soit par accident, soit par semence.
Le premier sujet dû à l’art horticole fut, si nous ne nous trompons, le Perpétuel Mauget vinrent ensuite le Moussu ponctué, le Général Drouot, à fleurs presque simples, qui produisirent beaucoup de graines, d’où sortirent probablement Hermann Kegel, Pompon perpètuel, André Thouin, Delille, Céline Briant, Marie de Bourgogne, Salet, Madame Edouard Ory et Impératrice Eugénie, que nous représentons dans le dessin colorié joint à cette livraison. Nous avons vu en automne 1855, sur cette variété, des fleurs bien doubles, d’un beau coloris et d’un port élégant, dans le genre de celles de La Perpétuelle de Neuilly ; nous ne l’avons pas vu fleurir en automne, mais son obtenteur, M. Guillot père, nous a assuré avoir envoyé en septembre à l’un de ses correspondants de Paris, des fleurs magnifiques de ce Rosier.

Princess Royal was raised from seed by crossing that old variety Mousseuse ponctuée with the Tuscany Rose.
Magazine (9 Jul 1842) Page(s) 452, vol 2.
A Moss Rose, raised by Mr. Rivers from the Spotted Moss, crossed with the old dark Tuscany Rose, is at present the darkest Moss Rose known; its flowers are of deep crimson purple, mottled with red, but it is not at all double enough for a first-rate variety, having but five or six rows of petals. Its shoots and leaves in spring are of the deepest red, so that before it bloomed, it was anticipated that the great desideratum—a black Moss Rose— was at last obtained.
