round Dijon, where, on the authority of De Candolle, it is said to 
abound. Seringe concludes by giving as synonyms Rose de Reims , 
Rose de Champagne , Rose a petites feuilles , and Rose de Meaux — the 
last, as we have seen, erroneously.

however, appear to have been discovered in a wild state since that 
time, and it is not included by the more recent writers among the 
indigenous Roses of France.
