    The lineage shows for 'Remember Me'. What is weird was that there are books from the 90s that mixed up 'Remember Me' lineage with 'Rhona's parentage, and 'Pensioner's Voice' with 'Remember Me' parentage. Must have been some crazy mix up because it persisted for awhile. I even have an ARS calendar or book (I'd have to go look) that made the mistake.

    Pensioner's Voice had no similarity to Rhona, Alexander, or Remember Me. And barely any similarity to Silver Jubilee (short with blackspot and tea form does not constitute enough similarity to be significant).

    Is this good in the heat? It seems that it may open too quickly to be a good cut flower.

    I was not impressed by it, when I owned it. Its kids, Day Breaker and company, are far superior, including for heat tolerance.

    What are the names of its other kids? I tried the advanced search on HMF but it didn't turn anything up.

    Try again. There are five showing for me.
