Per the patent for this rose, the parentage is as follows:
Origin and Breeding Controlled pollination: seed parent ‘The Fairy’ x pollen parent (‘The Fairy’ x seedling) x ‘Amanda’. The seed parent ‘The Fairy’ differs from ‘Korstesgli’ in flower colour rose pink and growth habit. The pollen parent is a breeding line confined to the breeder’s collection. The rose ‘Amanda’ has pure yellow flowers. Selection criteria: good flower colour, high flower production, ground cover rose. Propagation: ‘Korstesgli’ proved stable through numerous vegetative generations via cuttings. Breeder: Wilhelm Kordes, Sparrieshoop, Germany.

Thank you! The 'Amanda' which is mentioned in the parentage cannot be Bees' plant, as it is described as pure yellow.

Hello Jedmar, I noticed that. Hopefully, someone in Europe can shed some light on that one! Thanks. Kim

A revisit to the past.
The male parent is likely Flower Carpet Pink. FCP is Grouse x Amanda, and Grouse is The Fairy x "Wich hybrid", which is actually just Temple Bells.
So in essence this rose is [The Fairy ((The Fairy x Temple Bells) x Amanda)]
The Amanda used is likely the Bees version. The Arthur Bell line was used to breed out foliar diseases that are not black spot. Rosa rubiginosa is among the few species found in studies with the ability to reduce downy in many clones (but not all).

"The pollen parent is a breeding line confined to the breeder’s collection."
I don't believe that part at all. Seems oddly similar to Noack's.
In regard to the "pure yellow" part, patents are not always as precise as they could be.
But, because it is not precise, we are left with no real conclusions.

I will see if Kordes is willing to clarify the point.
