I wonder if we might update and do a bit of correction on the history of this rose. Jim Delahanty registered and introduced this rose in the USA, and we can all be grateful for that! But I don’t believe Jim ever claimed to have been the “breeder” of the rose (I notice in the Member Comments here, that he said "I haven't a clue as to the breeding lines") Actually, it has a longer and more international history: Jim received the rose long ago from India, via friends who got it from Mr. J P Agarwal of Friends Rosery, Lucknow. Mr. Agarwal had named it “China 65,” the name under which it is still grown in India (and likely should be listed as synonymous here). Mr. Agarwal originally imported it from the famed Fa Tee Nursery in Guangzhou, China, in 1965. I don’t know any more of its history before that. From the 1996 Friends Rosery Catalogue (text written by the son, Mr. Ashok Agarwal): "China 65. New. An introduction from China. An exceptional beauty in dwarf polyanthas. My father was simply mesmerized by its medium pink huge clusters of conical shape."
