From 1913 series of Wills's cigarette cards (No 63) Text on reverse of card: BRITISH QUEEN. (Hybrid Tea.) With vigorous, and yet refined habit of growth, this rose promises to eclipse all the other pure white competitors. It is quite hardy, every bloom is perfection in shape, and it is excellent for exhibition, garden, or house ornamentation. Should be moderately pruned, and thrives best in a medium soil. Introduced in 1912.
