| Great show I miss Mme William Paul it's one of the froses that was removed when they reorganized the Peggy Rockefeller Rose Garden. Killer shot of lady Emily Peel. |

| oooooohhhhh, Spenser is lovely! Gotta research on HMF now... |
|
| I am really puzzled about the color of Souvenir de Madame Léonie Viennot - in some pics she is pink, in some she is apricot and in others blend of the two. |
|
| Your pictures give a wonderful tour of the garden, so many interesting varieties. Thanks for sharing. |
|
| I was enchanted by Lady Emily Peel, but so many other are gorgeous too. Gloire Lyonnaise was in a previous garden of mine, and was my mother's favorite rose there. Many lovely roses again here. Ingrid |

| Thank you, everybody! Elemire, the changeability of color is a characteristic of many Teas. Some people think this is what makes them so lovely. It is sometimes possible that different roses are sold under the same name because sometimes old roses are not ID-d correctly right away. Actually, speaking about IDs, that Mme Desiree Giraud is probably Baronne Prevost. There is a discussion about it on HMF. Apparently the thinking is that all so far known cultivars of Mme Desiree sported back to the parent:-(. I forgot about it when I was posting... Masha |

| I see about the teas, now when you mention I remember reading about it before somewhere. That explains different colors. :) |
