  Rosa Gigantea by Wilmott
Rosa gigantea was collected in 1888 in the Shan Hills, Upper Burma, at elevations of 4,000 to 5,000 feet, by the late General Sir Henry Collett, who sent dried specimens to Kew and to the Calcutta Botanic Garden, whence they were sent to Crépin with the name gigantea suggested by the discoverer.
Rosa gigantea grows well on the Riviera, but, though it is quite hardy in England, the sun has not sufficient power to bring it to the flowering stage.
Rosa macrocarpa, which was found by Sir George Watt in Manipur in 1882, was believed by Crépin to be identical with Rosa gigantea, but Sir George himself considers them distinct.

  Rosa gigantea - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rosa gigantea is a species of rose native to northeast India, northern Myanmar and southwest China (Yunnan) in the foothills of the Himalaya at 1000-1500 m altitude.
As its name suggests, it is the largest species of rose, climbing 20 m or more into the crowns of other trees by means of its stout, hooked thorns, and with a trunk up to 50 cm diameter.
macrocarpa (deeper yellow flowers, larger foliage with 4 to 7 leaflets and large yellow fruits) are not consistent.

For Victoria, Australia, the enormous growth of this plant is no particular disadvantage, but it was not for this characteristic as much as for its disease resistant foliage and its obvious suitability for his climate, that he valued it and wished to use it as a parent of a new race.

 Crataegus cytology
When considering apomixis in the genus, it is wise also to keep in mind that the genus Rosa in the same family (though a different subfamily) shows a phenomenon called Rosa canina meiosis in some taxa that, like so many Crataegus taxa, appear to be of hybrid origin.
Rosa canina meiosis might be confounded with facultative apomixis when observing the distribution of genetic traits to the offspring.
Also, poor pollen stainability is a characteristic both of Rosa canina and of many of the Crataegus species that have been found to be apomicts.

The peculiarity of this rose is that while some plants grow to 1.2m or more high and wide other grown under the same condition remain quite small.
Lots of spring flowers are followed by a summer and autumn show when the bush is covered with small, dark red hips and when the ferny leaves turn fiery red.
However it is of attractive shrub habit, with thick willowy grey-green foliage and a late crop of simple, semi-double, soft buff-pink, informal blooms quickly opening to white, in clusters.

According to Estrada’s original diseño (sketch map), his rancho extended from the ocean to the mountains and was bordered on the north by San Simeon Creek and on the south by Arroyo Aquage which ran approximately through the present-day town of Harmony and contained three leagues or about 13,290 acres.
At this point, the border followed a straight line northwest to Santa Rosa Creek and then down the creek to a point behind where Cambria Tax and Financial Services is, across Main Street from Heart Glass Gallery where Hampton’s 76 station used to be.
