Rosa Gallica Officinalis

(Gallica) The flowers are scented, semi-double, light crimson in colour, borne all over the bush in June.

Empress Josephine

(Gallica) Large, loosely formed, semi-double, heavily veined, pink flowers. Scented, with ample foliage, a very good healthy rose.

Duchesse De Montebello

(Gallica) This is a lovely member of the Gallica group. The fragrant, fully double flowers are a soft, powdery pink, produced on a tidy, upright plant with good foliage.

Duchesse D'Angouleme

(Gallica) Blush pink, delicate, nodding flowers freely produced rather early in the summer. A very useful shorter yet vigorous variety.

Daphne

(Gallica) Fully double medium sized rosette flowers of rich lilacy-pink. Very fragrant. Foliage mid-green plentiful.

Complicata

(Gallica) An exceptional shrub and good on light sandy soils. Very vigorous, with large arching branches which bear flat, single flowers of bright pink and gold stamens, all along their length in mid June. Plentiful, foliage. Origin unknown. Effective as a pillar or climbing rose.

Agatha

(Gallica) This rose is highly scented, pale pink with a deeper centre. When fully open the irregular petals form a loose quartered effect reminiscent of crumpled crepe paper. More vigorous than its close relative ''Empress Josephine''.
