MME. JULES CALOT. ma-dam-zhul-ca-lo. (Calot, 1868.) 8.3.

Double type; large; midseason. Pinkish white, paling to white in center, with a sprinkling of tiny old-rose splashes, tufted in center, and showing a good deal of yellow at base of petals; not very fragrant. Dwarf; floriferous; strong stems. Good foliage.
