Excerpt: ... England as yet, have proved most valuable in my own Hampshire collection and perfectly hardy. Among roses that are little known in English gardens are Baronne de Hoffmann, a vigorous grower, vivid copper-red, with yellow base; and the invaluable M. Tillier, which I first saw in the Paris Exhibition of 1900.
