Die "Bourbon Rosen" scheinen sehr widerstandsfähig zu sein. Immerhin wurden sie auf der Insel Reunion im Indischen Ozean, deren früherer Name "Bourbon-Insel" ("Ile Bourbon") war, als Schutzhecke benutzt.

Bourbon Roses are named for the Ile Bourbon, now called Reunion, in the Indian Ocean, where they traditionally are supposed to have originated from a natural cross between the China "Parsons' Pink" and the red "Tous-les-Mois", a Damask Perpetual, two roses which were used as hedge material on the island. (This, however, is an area of hot dispute in almost every particular.) Seeds of this plant, and cuttings of the plant, showed up in Paris in 1819 and 1821 respectively. The way in which the virtues of its disparate parents were combined made these new roses popular, and after ten years of largely unsuccessful attempts, good new Bourbons began to come out of the breeding grounds in the 1830's. In the best of them, vigor was combined with floriferousness, and beauty with fragrance. A typical Bourbon will have the arching growth harkening back to its Damask ancestors, with the lush flowers and fragrance from much the same source; but it will also have a strong tendency to rebloom from the China ancestor, as well as a certain often subtle influence of the China flower form. Bourbons, however, are often not typical at all, and range from the arching growth just mentioned to the very dwarf, China-like growth of the cultivar "Hermosa", indeed one of the oldest Bourbons still available (it had shown up by 1835). They range in color from deep reds through pinks to blush and white. The easygoing charms of the Bourbons have returned them to the forefront of popularity among today's old rose people, though very few were introduced after 1900; their original heyday was the period 1830-1850. "Souvenir de la Malmaison", "Reine Victoria", "Louise Odier", "Gloire des Rosomanes", "Mme. Isaac Pereire", "Acidalie", "Boule de Neige".
