China Roses

Although the name of this group refers to the area of the world in which they were discovered it could be said to be appropriate for they are quite fragile specimens in terms of hardiness at least and many will require protection in colder areas. It is thought that examples of them existed in China as early as the 10th Century, possibly even before. Later on they were used greatly in breeding programmes and are responsible for the long flowering season of many of today’s modern roses.
China roses come in a wide range of colours and many of them are very strongly scented.They can be used in bedding schemes or as specimen plants in the garden and are very good in tubs when they can easily be moved to a sheltered position in the winter.
‘Archduke Charles’ (‘Archiduc Charles’) A free flowering bushy variety with a little more than single blooms of claret pink with paler reverses to the petals. Flowers tend to deepen with age.This rose has an awkward growth habit being rather angular in it’s branch habit. Continuous flowering.
1.2 x 0.9m 4 x 3’ LAFFAY France c. 1825.
‘Arethusa’ Ragged petals create rather muddled flowers are soft yellow with heavy orange and pink overlay. They are borne in clusters continuously throughout the summer . The plant itself is a little ungainly and sparsely clothed in glossy leaves. A useful member of this group.
0.9 x 0.9m 3 x 3’ W.PAUL UK 1903
‘Beauty of Rosemawr’ The growth style of this rose is un-refined, dense, twiggy and upright. Double flowers are blowsy, carmine with heavy veining and sometimes paler edges to the petals. As with so many of the Chinas the foliage is a little sparse. Continuous flowering over a long period.
1.2 x 0.6m 4 x 2' VAN FLEET USA 1904.
‘Bloomfield Abundance’ (Spray Cécile Brunner) Hybrid Tea like blooms although considerably smaller and borne in clusters. They are extremely similar to ‘Cécile Brunner’ but the plant’s growth is considerably different being broader and taller. Flowers appear in profusion continuously on a vigorous plant. There is controversy over the name of this cultivar, it is consistently called ‘Spray Cécile Brunner’ in America but this name is not adopted in the UK. Unusually for a China, a good hedging plant.
1.8 x 1.2m 6 x 4' THOMAS USA 1920
‘Brennus’ Not the most typical China, likely to have Gallica in it’s parentage. Double, cupped flowers of reddish carmine, on a well foliated plant. Repeat flowering.
1.5 x 1.2m 5 x 4’ LAFFAY France 1830.
‘Camellia Rose’ Rather ragged camellia like blooms of blush pink, sometimes with flecks of a deeper shade are borne in clusters. A vigorous rose with plentiful, darkish-green glossy foliage. Continuous flowering.
4 x 3' Tb. P. (C) 1830
‘Cécile Brünner’ (‘Maltese Rose’). A very free flowering little rose with delicate soft shell pink small blooms of H.T. shape in clusters. Can be a little temperamental and perhaps rather sruffy in growth but none the less charming. An excellent choice for a button hole. Continuous flowering over a long period.
1.2 x 0.6m 4 x 2’ PERNET-DUCHER France 1881
‘Cécile Brünner White’ A beautiful white form of ‘Cécile Brunner’ with all its parents’ characteristics except colour.
1.2 x 0.6m 4 x 2’ FAUQUE France 1909
‘Comtesse du Cayla’ A semi-double, fragrant blooms of vivid orange-pink with occasional red highlights. Angular and a little awkward in growth but this is compensated for by a very free flowering habit.
0.9 x 0.9m 3 x 3' GUILLOT France 1902
‘Cramoisi Supérieur’ (‘Agrippina’) In growth this is a tidy rose for a China. Cupped flowers in large clusters are semi-double of bright, crimson-red with occasional white flecks. Very free flowering for a long period.Young leaves are tinted red otherwise the foliage is a glossy mid green. Slightly scented. A good candidate for a pot.
0.9 x 0.6m 3 x 2’ COQUEREAU France 1832
‘Duke of York’ A variable mixture of rose pink and white isthe colouring of the double almost blooms. Free flowering and continuous. Bushy, branching habit, foliage dark, shiny and very healthy.
0.9 x 0.6m 3 x 4' W.PAUL UK 1894
Fabvier‘Fabvier’ Double, bright crimson with occasional white flecks Healthy and free flowering. Produces lots of flowers over a long period making it a good candidate for mass bedding. Well foliated with glossy purple tinted leaves, tidy and healthy.
0.9 x 0.6m 3 x 2’ LAFFAY France 1832
‘Fellemberg’ (‘La Belle Marseillaise’) Cupped, double flowers of bright pink to crimson are borne in clusters on a vigorous plant. Has a desirable tumbling habit if given freedom. A useful pillar rose if given support. Sometimes seen listed as a Noisette.
2 x 1.2m 7 x 4’ FELLEMBERG Germany 1857
‘Grüss an Teplitz’ This rose has strong China characteristics and is probably best described as a Hybrid China. Crimson flowers become deeper with age, borne in clusters. Foliage is a light green but sadly has a tendancy to mildew if good husbandry is not provided. Strong scented. Continuous flowering.
1.8 x 1.2m 6 x 4' GESCHWIND Hungary 1897
‘Hermosa’(‘Armosa’, ‘Mélanie Lemaire’, Mme Neumann’) A rose for the smaller garden, delicate pale pink cupped blooms. Ought to be grouped in three's for best effect.
3 x 2' Tb. P (R) 1840
‘Le Vésuve’ Shapely buds opening loose and blowsy, sometimes in a quartered style, silvery-pink with deeper shadings. Good under glass. Very free flowering over a lengthy period.
0.9 x 0.9m 3 x 3' LAFFAY France 1825
‘L'Ouche’ (China) Cupped and fully double blooms of flesh pink with occasional yellow overtones emerge from pointed buds, continuously throughout the summer. A bushy plant of upright habit with dark foliage.
1.2 x 0.9m 4 x 3' BUATOIS France 1901
‘Louis Philippe’ Medium sized blooms are deep pink through crimson and almost purple in places,occaisional white flecks especially at the petal edges. Bushy habit.
2 x 2' Tb. (R) GUÉRIN France 1834
‘Louis XIV’ Fully double, cupped flowers of very dark red almost black with burn and become crisp if the sun is too strong. A good fragrance. Likes to be molly coddled. Foliage a little sparse and growth is sometimes awkward and angular. Even with these little faults this rose is one of the most popular Chinas, probably because of it’s deep red colouring. 859.
0.6 x 0.6m 2 x 2' GUILLOT FILS France 1859
‘Mme. Laurette Messimy’ An excellent brightly coloured China. Many semi-double flowers are bright salmon tinged pink and suffused yellow at their base. Bushy and upright with glossy grey green foliage. Continuous flowering.
0.6 x 0.6m 2 x 2' GUILLOT France 1887
Mutabilis (‘Tipo Ideale’, Rosa turkestancica). Without doubt my favourite China! It is also very unusual and individual. The five petals of the flowers are almost wing like and a little floppy in their presentation. To begin with their colouring is of a honey to apricot but they soon assume deeper orange shades and by the time they are fully mature are a deep almost bronzy red. Appearing without fail over a long period and when coupled with dark leaves and young plum shoots the overall effect is stunning. Can reach 6', but more likely to remain dwarf. This is a handsome shrub in many ways, excellent if selected to be grown in a tub.
0.9 x 0.6m 3 x 2' Probably older than 1932 as it is usually dated
Old Blush‘Old Blush’ (‘Parsons Pink’, ‘Monthly Rose’). An historic rose. Silvery-pink flowers with a deeper flush are regular throughout the season. Upright in growth and relatively thorn free. Tougher than most of it’s group, it is tolerant of less than adequate soils and will cope with dapple shade, can be used successfully as a climber if supported.
1.8 x 1.2m 6 x 4, Probably cultivated in China before 10th century. Introduced to Europe about 1789
‘Papillon’ Largely pink with white and copper tones are the predominant shades of the double flowers. No doubt named such because of the wing like formation of the petals. Should be better known. Continuous flowering with dark foliage that when young is copper tinged.
1.2 x 0.9m 4 x 3’ Breeder unknown but probably introduced in France c.1900
‘Perle d'Or’ (‘Yellow Cécile Brunner’) Although not bred from or a sport of this rose is very similar to ‘Cécile Brunner’ in terms of flower shape at least. Clusters of buff-yellow flowers with pink shadings are small, shapely, fully double and perfumed. Growth is vigorous and well in rich green foliage. Continuous flowering.
1.2 x 0.6m 4 x 2' DUBREUIL France 1884
‘Queen Mab’ Blooms are an unusual shade, a pleasing mixture of orange and apricot shades with pink tones, the reverse of the petals being softer and flushed with lilac. A compact plant that is free flowering and bushy with dark foliage. Flowers produced continuously over a lengthy period.
1.2 x 0.9m 2 x 2' W.PAUL UK 1896
‘Sanguinea’ (‘Miss Lowes’ Rose’) A bright red deepening with age to crimson, single flowered cultivar. Flowers appear repeatedly throughout the summer. A seedling of ‘Slater’s Crimson China’ and as such important in the ranks of the China’s. Twiggy angular growth. Happy if grown in a pot.
0.9 x 0.6m 3 x 3’ Probably originated in China, discovered in 1887
‘Slater’s Crimson China’ (‘Old Crimson China’ ‘Semperflorens’).An old rose. Bright red to crimson semi-double flowers are occasionally streaked with white.An upright, bushy plant that will behave like a small climber if planted against a wall. Continuous flowering.
0.9 x 0.9m 3 x 3' Found in China and introduced to the UK by SLATER 1792
‘Triomphe de Laffay’ Large, white, flushed pink flowers on a plant of stocky growth. Leaves are smallis for a China and deep green in colour. Flowers freely and continuously. Happy if grown in a tub but best without shade.
0.9 x 0.9m. 3 x 3' LAFFAY France c.1930
‘Viridiflora’ ( ‘The Green Rose’) This rose is really a novelty or collector's cultivar. It bears bracts rather than flowers of a nondescript green that are tinted brown, more in the fashion of a scabious than a rose. Highly unusual and ideal for a florist looking for something a little different. Healthy and will cope with poor soil and shade.
0.9 x 0.9m 3 x 3' Origin unknown but circa 1833
