Breeder's notes:
Open-pollinated seedlings of Porcelaine de Chine, added to reflect the genetics of the seed parent.
Most are reblooming seedlings (de Chine is a weak rebloomer, but does rebloom), low thorn count, single to somewhat double, white to pink with dark pink edges. All as clean as the seed parent, strong fragrance.
I strongly suspect my nearby polyantha roses (and the rambler 'Pink Cloud') contributed to these seedlings.
Patents:
Patent status unknown (to HelpMeFind).
