Named for General Lamarque, this rose is the result of a cross between ‘Blush Noisette’ and ‘Parks’ Yellow Tea-scented China’. A fine, vigorous climber, its flowers are of medium size, double in form, with white petals that have a touch of lemon yellow at the base. Nancy Steen, in The Charm of Old Roses, says that "the fragrance of the flowers is clean and delicious." We have had bouquets of ‘Lamarque’ on the table for Christmas Day. A superb climbing rose.
