Frank Mason,  NZ.  Species and Hybrids.
Persian Yellow seems to me to belong to the same family, [as Austrian Copper] and is a double and free bloomer when well grown, but it must have good culture to get the best out of it.

Persian Yellow. Deep golden yellow, very double. Calyx longer than bud, leafy points, two wings, covered dark glands. Pedicel smooth and also hip, which is turbinate. Leaves pale yellow green, glands on edges and mid-rib, slightly cupped. Thorns broad at base, straight, wood brown. Introduced from Persia by Sir Henry Willcocks in 1838. It flowers best when budded on briar. As it rarely breaks from below it must be pruned only to a good new growth, not below.
