Sadly, it appears as many as 50% of Huyustus's images are probably not Graham Thomas if you really start looking.

Can admin please contact this poster and ask him to post no more than his two best pictures of each variety each day. I find this dump behavior for every photo on his camera to also be very annoying. We ONLY want to see the photos that are NOT just repetitive.

This advice / request is applicable to all HMF's guests.
There is a cost associated with the storage and display of each photo uploaded to HMF. Per photo it's minimal but the aggregate is really beginning to add up for HMF.
Please upload only your best photos and instead of very similar bloom photos consider including a whole plant image along with other characteristic identifying photos for rare or unique plants.

I would assume that the rose was named for Graham Stuart Thomas, 1909 - 2003, English horticulturalist and author.
But I appreciate the biographical work Viviane Schussele has done for other rose names.

Graham Thomas described; I think more than once, how he came to select the rose to bear his name. For example, in the introduction to David Austin's book, The Heritage of the Rose, 1988, p. 12
"...a few of them may be named and may prove a success, such as 'Mary Rose' and my own namesake. It is interesting to recall that the latter was the only rich soft yellow amongst hundreds of seedlings. But on looking back one can see that it has ever been a rare colour..."

G. Thomas is one of a few David Austin "New English Roses" i have found to be worthwhile in the U.S. Gulf Coast Region. Zone 8b. 56 " rain much of it typically in the winter. I have it on its own roots, ~10 years old. Tendency to get leggy unless judiciously pruned. Will climb or can be pruned as a 5-6 ft shrub. Will also cover a wall if offered support such as trellis or wires and good nutrition. One of only three, of the half dozen i have tried that does well here. The others are "The Pilgrim", and "Gertrude Jekyll" the latter is outstanding here if pruned back each year fairly hard and a very important Austin introduction as it is a perfect replacement for the great rose Comte de Chambord which struggles here due to disease.
