Duc de Fitzjames, origin unknown, pre-1837.

Another of the fine Gallicas that graces my garden. A bit large compared to some others, it appears to have Centifolia influence in it.

ARS merit rating: None
Personal merit rating: 8.5, but under assessment.
Hardiness: Likely USDA zones 3 to 8, zone 4 in a protected location.
Shrub size: 4 to 7 feet tall X 5 feet wide.
Fragrance: 3.0, mild Gallica scent.
