Safrano

('Aime Plantier')
Beauregard, 1839
..."This variety, precious to florists, dates to 1839..." "When the bud opens in the morning, it is a fine saffron or dark orange colour, and is beautiful; pointed flowers, semi-double...a pretty and hardy variety; growth vigorous." "Carnation scented." "The beauty, the delicious scent, the elegant bearing of the Tea Rose 'Safrano' assure it a foremost place in all collections." [PIB]
