EDITORS COMMENTS
Rose 'General Jacqueminot' (Rosa 'General Jacqueminot') is a stunning example of the Hybrid Perpetual rose variety, showcased in this beautiful chromolithograph from Edward Step's "Favourite Flowers of Garden and Greenhouse," published by Frederick Warne in London in 1896. The illustration was created by Desire Bois, capturing the essence of this exquisite rose in meticulous detail. The 'General Jacqueminot' rose is a bigleaf hybrid perpetual, characterized by its large, velvety petals that bloom in a rich, deep red color. This rose was named in honor of General Jacques Louis Rousselle, a French military officer who served under Napoleon Bonaparte. The rose's origins can be traced back to the mid-19th century, making it a beloved addition to Victorian gardens and greenhouses. The Macrophylla species, also known as the Bigleaf Roses, is a popular group of roses known for their large, glossy leaves and abundant flowers. The 'General Jacqueminot' rose is a prime example of this group, with its large, showy blooms and lush foliage. This chromolithograph is a testament to the beauty and allure of the 'General Jacqueminot' rose, and serves as a reminder of the rich horticultural history that flourished during the Victorian era. The intricate details of the rose's petals, veins, and leaves are brought to life in this stunning illustration, making it a must-have for any botanical art collection or garden enthusiast's library.
