Dear Koolami,
Have you managed to find out who the breeder of 'Brindabella Golden Tiger' was since March 1, 2010? See main page note.
And while I am at it, do you, or anyone else know who bred
Brindabella L'Amour
Brindabella Gold Tiger
Brindabella Magnifica
Brindabella Raspberry Tiger
Brindabella Swirl
Some dates would be good.

it's likely
Brindabella L'Amour = Grand Siecle
Raspberry Tiger = Henri Matisse
Brindabella Swirl was out in 2005 (when they were still selling the other delbards under delbard names) based on web.archive
so unlikely affected by other post

Good question. I just received it in the mail today, and was making my labels when I couldn't find it on here. I went back to their website, and see that they also list it as Red Cascade. It's very confusing though, because they say it was found growing on a farm in Alachua, FL...where Red Cascade was bred by Moore.
Here's the link:

I gave this rose to Rose Petals nursery with the found name of "Alachua Red Cl."
In the early 1990s I found this rose growing with other old garden roses on a farm in Alachua County, Florida, The owner said that she had grown it for many years and that it was not a modern rose. I had a small wholesale nursery and sold it as "Alachua Red Cl."
I met William Welch at lecture he was giving on old garden roses at Disney World. I had been asked by Disney to supply some potted rose to be used as props at his lecture. Mr. Welch told me that he also encountered a similar rose when rose rustling old gardens in Texas.
Red Cascade has a reputation as a "mildew magnet" when grown in Florida. "Alachua Red" does not get mildew.

Just have to vent here: WHAT IS THE APPEAL? Single pink roses are a dime a dozen, strong or not, delicate or dainty or not. I have heard the maroon/purple stamens/anthers are a hugely recessive trait which ostensibly sets this one somewhat apart, but even that being said, this one has surely appeared 50,000 times and more over in the seed bed of every professional and every amateur hybridizer........nothing about this rose appeals to me...........this is all personal. If single pinks ring your bell, well, this somehow has been your only choice for over 80 years with no end in sight................

I find Dainty Bess to be breathtakingly, heartbreakingly beautiful.

Well, it is a fabulous shade of pink, the stamens re gorgeous, and it is a magnificantly formed single, as singles go. That being said, I don't grow it :P

I have and enjoy plenty of single roses, but Dainty Bess is not one of them. There is something about the color of the stamens that doesn't appeal to me. However, I have to say with respect that this rose is a survivor. I have spent decades rose rustling and searching for older roses within my community and DB is a very tough rose and was quite common until a decade or so ago when the the Knockout roses started appearing. Now most of the old roses like Dainty Bess and Aloha are gone replaced by Knockouts.
