'Yellow Radiance' rose Reviews & Comments
HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.
Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.
We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.
Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..
We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.
As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

(Extracted from 'White Radiance' - "References"-) The American Rose Magazine. Magazine (May 1937), Page(s) vol. 2, no. 3, p. 30. Yellow Radiance? White Radiance? "Pretty soon the popularity of Radiance started two things: hybridization to get other colors, and hopes for sports. The sport occurrence is not rare, and a White Radiance was soon reported from Miami, which investigation proved to be a fake. Then came a Texas report, and White Radiances from all over, the last and worst of them having been run down within a few months as nothing more or less than a Kaiserin Auguste Viktoria renamed, despite its total difference of habit, shape, and general character".
"The rose-swindler will keep busy with Radiance, but it may be assumed that until the American Rose Society's Registration Committee has accepted any rose as a White Radiance, or a Yellow Radiance, "there ain't no such animile." This is said with much confidence and assertion, because registrations which have been offered by sincere, honest members of the Society, first for Yellow Radiance and then for White Radiance, were withdrawn when it was found that the parentage was not as claimed".
