Rosa ‘Madame Domage’
Hybrid Perpetual. Paul described ‘Madame Domage’ as very large and double flowers of a bright rose colour on a vigorous shrub. [Paul (1863, 1888)].
Horticultural & Botanical History
It was introduced in 1854. The Gardeners’ Chronicle of 1857 descrbed it as ‘very large in size, fine, large bold petals, not too numerous, fine pink in colour. A good show rose, lasting in bloom’, and, ‘[there is] nothing like the perfection of shape of ‘Madame Vidot’, [and] ‘Madame Domage’’. It was recommended as a late-flowering rose. [Gard. Chron. (1857, 1858)].
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].
