Rosa ‘Madame Audot’
Alba rose. A glossy flesh colour, the edges of the petals creamy blush, large and full, cupped. It produces a vigorous bush of branching habit. [Paul (1848, 1863, 1888, 1903), Rivers (1854, 1857, 1863)].
Horticultural & Botanical History
‘Madame Audot’ was included in a list of recommended Damask, Alba, French and Hybrid Provins roses in The Gardeners’ Chronicle of 1850. A rose classified as a Hybrid Bourbon by The Gardeners’ Chronicle of 1852 was described as having creamy white flowers with a blush centre, large and full, a description consistent with the Alba rose of this name.
History at Camden Park
Included in a handwritten list of roses dated 1861, probably intended for a new edition of the catalogue that was never printed. [MP A2943].
