In the opinion of the Bermuda Rose Society "Smith's Parish" and "Red Smith's Parish" (sport of the former) should not be synonymous with 'Fortune's Five-Coloured Rose'. According to The Graham Stuart Thomas ROSE BOOK, page 131 : 'Five-coloured China Rose' .This is a remarkable plant discovered by Robert Fortune during his journeys in China for the then Horticultural Society of London, recorded in his book 'Three Years' Wanderings in the Northern Provinces of China', of 1847. It has been treasured for many years in Bermuda, whence came my plants. In China it is known as 'Wu Se' Quaing Wei'...... It was definitely NOT bred in England by Fortune!

"Trinity", Tea, should be classified as Bermuda Mystery Rose, not a Bermuda Rose. It is what is called a Found Rose in the USA.

I'm not sure I understand about this one, "Trinity (Tea, Bermuda Rose)" is already classified as a found rose on HMF - note both the found rose designation and the name is enclosed in double quotes. We do not have a class called Bermuda Mystery Rose, rather we use the combination Bermuda Rose and Found Rose to indicate such. Do you see this as a problem - we would be interested in your opinion.
