The quote in References from the Hawlmark catalog in 1914 refers to the original HT, not to its climbing sport, bringing about incorrect dating ("1910") on the description page for the climbing sport.

The 1910 date didn't come from the 1914 catalog; it came from a later reference. 1910 does seem a bit early, given that JJLM itself has an intro date of 1909... I'm a bit skeptical, given that we have no catalog references before 1923. Other sources give 1923 date, so I've changed it.

I have moved the 1914 reference to its rightful record—thanks!

According to Rogue Valley Roses, its fragrance and rebloom are both strong.

To me there is a definite difference between these two roses. Blanche de Belgique is the stronger grower and has tidier, organized type flowers. Mme Germain makes a more twiggy bush and the flowers are fluffy looking more like a ball of petals.

How funny to stumble upon this misplaced reply while looking up obscure roses!

The Old Rosarian -- perhaps you'll wish to copy this and paste it back under 'Blanche de Belgique'.
