…..Henceforward  the Polyantha class, with all its beauty, was to be represented by roses of different character, such as 'Ballerina', which follows.  
 
'Ballerina'  Medium   +  Light pink    Remontant  P1    H2   *** 
A splendid, dense plant, often with a squared-off look, and nearly always in good health and vigour. The flowers are small and single, light pink with a white eye; when a basal shoot arises, it bears a huge head of them, like a mop. This  rose went unnoticed by most British nurserymen, until Fryers of Knutsford had the perception to advance it. A group of plants can form a handsome clump.  No doubt  this was one of Pemberton's seedlings, for it was introduced by his successor, J. A. Bentall, in 1937. We have no information as to its parents…..
Mozart'…..varies from 'Ballerina' in having a deeper pink around its white eye
'Belinda', which came from Bentall in 1936….slightly taller…looks like a sister of 'Ballerina'.

Students of family trees will be interested to know that a party of German rosarians who visited the Trial Grounds during 1972, considered 'Ballerina' (Bentall, 1937) to be identical with 'Mozart' (Lambert, 1937).
