My mostly-unpruned plant (which came as "Bishop's Lodge Muriel Linton") is quite tall, perhaps 1.7m.

Thanks Margaret. We've altered the height of "Bishop's Lodge Muriel Linton" up even further as Cree has a photo showing over six feet. If you can find any references to 'Hadley' being tall, that might confirm this identification.

Does anyone know why this is called "Montgomery's Mistake?" I have a lot of reference books but none that discusses that and as far as I am aware to this point, it was quite successful 100 years and, maybe ironically, still hanging around to some extent. Birthed even in 1940 this probably would have been culled...........but a LOT went on with roses between 1913 and 1940..............would love some more info!

I think it is still hanging around my garden, I am glad to say. There is a little bit on the sour grapes [?] in the 1992 reference (and which originally came from the 1917 American Rose Annual)
