Many who lived during the presidency of President Theodore Roosevelt knew that he often wore a rose in his lapel. His choice of rose was the pink, fragrant Duchess de Brabant rose. When we see him on old black and white films we do not notice the color. Now we all know.
This tea rose flower has a large, double light pink flower.
Brabant (Brabant Wallon) is found in Central Belgium. As to who the duchess was that was mentioned in the name of this rose we find that the royal Brabant line of Belgium is much too involved to discuss here.
