Medium sized soft yellow of small cluster-flowered. The force of its growth is strong and its roses grows larger. It grows like a tall shrub in Japan. Mat green leaves. Moderately fragrant. I think it should be classified as Gr or HT based on its growth and genetically.

Polyantha? Something is wrong somewhere or the genetics of this rose are doing flips in mid-air, lol.

Yes, this does looks a bit odd.

This might be a translation problem. Some European nurseries used Hybrid Polyantha for Floribunda for a long time. Polyantha is the ARS class.

And... this is a perfect example of erroneous information propagated from one resource to another and where HelpMeFind can make a difference going forward. Who in the rose community can shed some light on this and provide additional details. Let's set the record straight.

I dont own any of the Modern Roses. I tried looking both this rose and Maxi up via Google Books because they both felt like they are missing information but the few pages Google Books allows one to see do not cover either plants. None of my personal book collection contain this rose either, so I really have no clue what is going on.

Which makes it understandable why this erroneous information still stands, but someone, somewhere in the world must know more about this rose and can help us.

I've searched my computer and added the only three references I can find. Interesting that HelpMeFind's page for the breeder says: "The nursery was in existence at least 1920-1950." but the page for Plants Bred show roses through to 1973.

Wageningen is also the small town in The Netherlands, in which the University of Agriculture is located. This university has a very large archive, maybe someone that is interested in information about this rose could contact them: http://www.wageningenuniversity.nl/nl
