I picked up a Marc Chagall at Home Depot. Own root. The tag is says: "Marc Chagall (TM), Floribunda Rose, my painter's palette - Inspired by the Great French Impressionists" The back of the tag it has the "PEPINIERES ET ROSERAIES GEORGES DELBARD" logo, the inside has the 'CERTIFIED' logo. What I find interesting is that the TAG shows the patent name to be (DELstricol). The Delbard website, and most of the USA websites selling the rose list it as DELstrirojacre.

Odd! Perhaps you might like to add photos of the tag. We have:
1996. Camille Pissaro DELstricol. yellow, striped with red.
2013 Marc Chagall. DELstrirojacre. Pink, striped with cream.

‘Yellow Jema’ added.
There is a slight discrepancy in the discoverer as Astor Perry died in 2004.

Regarding R. carolina f. plena;
In an article entitled "A Rediscovery of the Double Form of Rosa Carolina," this rose was reported in the American Rose Annual, Vol. 40, by Doris and Wilson Lynes in 1955. Their article reports it having been redsicovered on the Golly farm in Lee, NY. The site of that farm is perhaps 5 minutes away by bicycle. Fortunately, I have a specimen of this rose in the back yard. Hereabouts, the common name is simply "The Golly Rose" - after the family, and the road which also bears their name. It's growth is often described as dwarf. At about 5' tall, it's hardly dwarf in habit, although the flowers are quite small. It suckers like a fiend, and is completely sterile.
Provided there are no copyright issues, I can post the entire article from the ARA 1955 about this rose. I happen to have an original copy. Also, I suggest the name "Golly Rose" be added to the database as a common name. I have no idea how to go about this, however.

My Golly family is looking for a source for the Golly rose. Do you have any ideas? Thanks so much.
