Hmm, this post makes me wonder where HMF got the parentage below which it shows for Nyveldt's White on the Description page:


"seed: Paulii × Rosa cinnamomea L. synonym
pollen: Rosa nitida Willd."

None of the listed references show such a pedigree.

There were several parentages with Paulii listed among Nijveldt's roses. It seems that this was due to an earlier false synonym R. rugosa rubra for Paulii, which was deleted. All parentages are now corrected, thank you! The only remaining issue is that references juxtapose seed and pollen parents.

Thank you Jedmar, that makes perfect sense. I guess I'm like a toddler at the "why" stage--when I see something out of place, I will often ask why!

Fraser's new Black China Musk,


This is obviously not the same as Fraser's Noisette or Fraser's Pink Musk, but it does indicate that someone named Fraser was raising Noisette-like roses in the early 19th century.
