The Rose without thornes hath divers greene smooth shootes, rising from the root, without any pricke or thorne at all upon them, eyther young or old : the leaves are not fully so large as of the red rose : the flowers or roses are not much bigger then those of the double Cinamon Rose, thicke set together and short, of a pale red Rose colour, with divers pale coloured veines through every leafe of the flower, which hath caused some to call it The marbled Rose, and is of a small sent [scent], not fully equall to the red Rose. The single of this kinde differeth not in any other thing from the former, then in the doublenesse or singlenesse of the flowers, which in this are not halfe so double, nor yet fully single, and are of a paler red colour.

I recognize accepting it from Dr. Johannes Schröter senior, Primas of the University of Jena in Thuringia, doctor to the illustrious Duke of Saxony, Landgraf of Thuringia & Prince of Coburg and Weimar, who obtained it from the mother of the Prince of the Princes of Weimar and courteously sent it to me in Vienna in 1576. Blooms but in June.
variety of the same: I saw it many years later in the gardens of patricians of Frankfurt and Munich. Do not want miss confirming white blooms.

Rosa sine spinis The Rose without prickles. ... hath many young shootes comming from the root, dividing themselves into divers branches, tough, and of a woodie substance, as are all, the rest of the Roses, of the height of five or sixe cubites [ca. 90 to 108"], smooth and plaine without any roughnesse or prickles at all; whereon do growe leaves like those of the Holland Rose, of a shining deepe greene colour on the upper side, underneath somewhat hoarie and hairie. The flowers growe at the tops of the branches, consisting of an infinite number of leaves, greater than those of the Damaske Rose, more double, and of a colour between the Red and Damaske Roses, of a most sweete smell. The fruit is rounde, red when it is ripe, and stuffed with the like flockes and sedes of those of the Damaske Rose. The roote is great, woodie, and far spreading.
...The Rose without prickles is called in Latine Rosa sine spinis, and maybe called in English, the Rose without thornes, or the Rose of Austrich, bicause it was first brought from Vienna the Metropolitane citie of Austrich, and given to that famous herbarist Carolus Clusius.
