Modern Roses 5 in 1958 changed it to McGredy and introduced by Beckwith.

While a certain proportion of these roses has disappeared, those that have made history, or are still grown in gardens, make an impressive list. Varieties that won the Gold Medal or the Certificate of Merit of the National Rose Society of England, and others that have become generally useful in this country include:
