Bennet's Seedling, or Rosa Thoresbyana, is a variety found growing among some briars, by a gardener of the name of Bennet, in Nottinghamshire. It is a very pretty double and fragrant rose.
...I had in 1854 two standards of Bennet's seedling about ten years old; their stems are ten inches in circumference, their branches trail on the ground, and when in full bloom nothing can be more beautiful ; they have never been touched with the pruning knife.
