"Purple, black shading, medium size full." This is the description given in Doll: Der Rosen-Garten p.351. Singer (p128) refers to Mazeraty as "grenadine", while Biederfield's 1847 Das Buch der Rosen (p529) has "medium, lightly filled, loose form, dark purple; for effect on lawn with mass planting."

We've added these references - do they include photos as well ?

I'm not sure I phased that well, just to clarify, do the reference books cited include photos for any of these references ? Thanks.

It's just past midnight and my brain is obviously not working well. Do you want me to send you photographs of the pages I have referred to. Obviously I can do that, though all the sources I have referred to in this comment are freely downloadable. Let me know if you want me to send these pages.

No, it's just that we specifically note in our references when the cited reference includes a photo o0f the plant. I take it all these DO include a photo of the rose in question ?

No, Biedenfeld has only a few engravings, as most of the rose books in the 19th century.

Since there are no indications, it must be borne in mind that the Rosetum Gallicum reference may not refer to this rose but to the yellow tea rose in Tagliabue's 1840 catalogue called Marzorati.
