‘Captain Thomas’ = Grimpant à grande fleur… se couvre en fin de printemps de boutons effilés, puis d’églantines jaune citron lavé d’ivoire sur le pourtour de leur corolle fripée… parfum léger. La floraison de mai-juin, généreuse, est suivie de rappels sporadiques… végétation vigoureuse, le feuillage vert clair et satiné, et la plante peut-être palissée sur colonne ou laissé libre, en grand arbuste un peu désordonné. Vieux de plus de 60 ans, il s’est révélé un excellent géniteur de rosiers à fleur jaune… Thomas, US, 1935.
