They were many and varied, but the only really red varieties were Francois Dubreuil and Souvenir de Therese Levet. Both produced medium sized well shaped roses in abundance, but they lacked perfume, a common fault with Tea Roses.... Running over a 1925 catalogue of roses I found the following listed among the Tea Roses. .... Souvenir de Therese Levet, Papa Gontier, and Madamoiselle Christine de Noue (still found in gardens with its brightly coloured blooms).

Probably the rose in which I take the greatest pride is a vigorous plant of Christine de Noue, which also must have had many growing years behind it, and should now be somewhere in the region of forty years old. It joins its roots with those of a Dracena Plum, and a pittosporum hedge is only about three feet away, but it is evident that the Rose was planted first, and has more than held its own. Nothing seems to affect its gaiety, and it still spreads itself about eight feet across and about as high, and would probably go higher if unchecked. And what a beautiful effect is produced when the plant is covered with its blooms of deep, purplish red, the centre petals lake and clear purple! Very large, full and sweet are the flowers, with strong, upright stems and great lasting qualities. More than once has this old friend come to the rescue when the sixth bunch has been difficult to get at show time, and always has had an army of admirers.
Book (1931) p104. George Knight. Tea Roses in New South Wales. What an opportunity is offered to some of the authorities in connection with the public gardens of the State to plant out some of the most vigorous of these old tea Roses and grow them into large shrubs. There is no more striking feature than to see a Rose bush eight or nine feet high, built in proportion and covered in bloom. I would suggest as some of the most suitable for this purpose : Corallina, Mme Charles, Dr. Grill, Francois Dubreui., Mdlle. Christine de Noue and Mrs Dunlop Best. The latter makes a nice bush up to six feet.
p105. ibid. Mlle. Christine de Noue:- A large, well-shaped flower, with long, strong stem, splendid in the winter months as a cut flower or exhibition bloom; makes a very large plant, is very hardy and free from disease; the colour is rosy lake covered with a rich sheen.
Book (1930) Page(s) 151. George Knight. Rose Growing in Australia. Mlle Christine de Noue is another giant grower that is at its best in the winter. I have plants thirty years old that always seem to have blooms on them, and it is an excellent show rose in the colder months. If it is pruned too hard, the blooms split and the color comes very bad.
(28 Apr 1928) Page(s) 53. AUTUMN ROSE SHOW. T. A. Stewart won a number of prizes in this section, including first in nine roses distinct, six bunches decorative [ ... ] In his six bunches of decorative he also included Christine de Noue, a beautiful old rose, which could hardly he obtained now from any nursery, yet it has been growing in his garden for 25 years, and, as it stood in the stand, compared very favourably in every respect with newer roses. It is a rich red to pink colour, has long stems, vigorous growth, and lasts two or three days inside after cutting.
