HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.
Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.
We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.
Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..
We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.
As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

According to Gardener’s Monthly of 1880, several of Boll’s roses were sold by various unscrupulous persons in France “who sent them out as their own.” The lovely old Portland rose ‘Comte de Chambord’, bred originally as ‘Mme Boll’, is apparently one of these roses.

.... Some claim that the rose sold today as 'Comte de Chambord' is really 'Mme. Boll'....In memory of Monsieur Boll, we have planted 'Mme. Boll' (bought as 'Comte de Chambord') in the Heritage Rose District....

Unfortunately, Pergolèse (Moreau et Robert, 1860), Comte de Chambord (Moreau et Robert 1860), Marie Robert (Moreau et Robert, circa 1860?), Jacques Cartier (Moreau-Robert, 1868), and Rembrandt (Moreau-Robert, 1883) all seem to be wrongly named.....Mme. Boll (D. Boll/Boyau, 1859) is the correct name for Comte de Chambord.

Comte de Chambord ....I have been unable to find other published remarks contemporary with the release of this variety. There is suspicion that what is sold in modern times as 'Comte de Chambord' is perhaps actually 'Mme Boll'

‘Comte de Chambord’: Portland… buisson trapu, haut d’à peine 1m20… tiges gris-vert armées d’aiguillons rougeâtres sous un feuillage cendré, à dents aiguës, finement pubescent… élégants boutons aux pétales enroulés, puis s’évasent en coupe, souvent à quartiers, avant de s’ouvrir à plat, larges de 8cm au plein épanouissement. Selon certains, ce rosier est en réalité ‘Mme Boll’, introduit par Boll, France, 1859. Robert et Moreau, France, 1863. RHS Award of Garden Merit, 1993.
