'Emily Rhodes' rose Reviews & Comments
HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Paris and Maney (The Prodigious Ophelia Rose, Trans. Iowa. Hort. Soc., 75: 268-277. (1940) list the seed parent of 'Emily Rhodes' as "seedling of Golden Ophelia".

I haven't added this reference as Paris and Maney (1940) probably mis-read Alister Clark in the 'Australian Rose Annual', (1937) wherein he wrote: "It is a seedling from Golden Ophelia,which was probably crossed with the pollen of Zephirine Drouhin".
To me the pollen parent seems more in doubt than the seed parent.

Rowley (1960) reported ZD produces about 6% viable pollen, so it might be a pollen parent. But I'd love to see Emily Rhodes in person.
