'Else Poulsen' and `Kirsten Poulsen' came from the same cross, 'Orleans Rose'  x 'Red  Star', which is pink Polyantha  crossed semi-double red Hybrid Tea. Little credit has gone to 'Red Star' in that marriage. It came  from a Dutch breeder, H. A.  Verschuren & Sons, of  Haps.

[Svend Poulsen] used 'Orléans Rose', reputed to be another Mme. Levavasseur' seedling, crossed with another crimson hybrid tea, 'Red Star', a semi-double. They produced 'Else [Poulsen'] and 'Kirsten Poulsen', which in 1924 were to set the whole rose world on the trail of new wonders...

Everblooming Roses
The so-called Everblooming Roses include the Hybrid Tea and Pernetiana groups. They do not bloom all the time, but if kept healthy and growing steadily, one crop of flowers succeeds another at brief intervals.
Red Star. Hybrid Tea. (H. A. Verschuren & Sons, 1918.) Large buds and semi-double blooms of clear, snappy red, with a few very wide petals, and some fragrance. The plant grows well and blooms very freely. Foliage is vigorous and healthy.
A superb decorative or massing Rose, much on the order of Red-Letter Day, K. of K., Red Cross, and several others, but distinguished by its big petals and somewhat softer color and texture.
