I suspect that there is some vertical blackspot resistance in Vanessa Bell, as it is spotless for many growers and quite susceptible for others, regardless of humidity and heat.

I may partially agree on the single flower not being breathtaking, the average deep cup, but the colour is really unique. White on the outside, yellow on the inside. The scent is quite strong, not especially refined, myrrh and citrus.

The main thing I have to say about Vanessa Bell is that I had never seen a second year own root plant having 120 flowers in its second flush without deadheading.

Its growth and foliage are quite interesting as well, very light and airy, but it needs to be staked after heavy rains

White/yellow bicolor is indeed unique. How does VB look in its' last stages? Does it turn pink or fade to white throughout?

I would specify in the description that eyes for you is the small shrub in the background. The plant in the front is definitely not eyes for you

You are right, the metal label at the front is misleading.

according to the US patent, parentage is KORpriggos x Irish Hope

"The seed parent is Rosa ‘KORPRIGGOS’, U.S. Plant Pat. No. 21,314. The pollen parent is the unpatented Rosa ‘Irish Hope’. The new variety was discovered in June of 2011 by the inventor in a group of seedlings resulting from the 2010 crossing, in a research nursery in Temerin, Serbia"

also, the reported breeder is Biljana Bozanic Tanjga instead of Peter Cox
