Website/Catalog (1931) Page(s) 58. ‘Mrs. S. K. Rindge’ (HT). Clear, rich chrome-yellow becoming suffused with soft pink with age instead of fading. Buds are long and pointed and carried on stiff stems. Flowers moderately double and produced freely.
Website/Catalog (1929) Page(s) 28. Everblooming Roses The so-called Everblooming Roses include the Hybrid Tea and Pernetiana groups. They do not bloom all the time, but if kept healthy and growing steadily, one crop of flowers succeeds another at brief intervals. Mrs. S. K. Rindge. Hybrid Tea. (Howard & Smith, 1919.) Long, yellow buds, striped with red, opening to a fairly full, distinctively formed yellowish flower becoming pink with age. Growth and bloom moderate. Color remarkable, but fades in hot sunshine; foliage is quite good, even for gardens heavily infested with mildew, but it does not live long. The plant goes back the second year, and produces only weak growth. In hot gardens this Rose should be tried in partial shade and given plenty of water.
Book (1928) Page(s) 49. Dr. H. M. Helm, Beloit, Wis. Roses and Rough Winter. We subscribe to the opinion expressed by some nurserymen that some Pernetianas do better upon ‘Ragged Robin’ than upon Multiflora: ‘Mrs. S. K. Rindge’ for instance.
Book (1927) Page(s) 204. Countess Guilio Senni, Italy. I see with regret that ‘Mrs. S. K. Rindge’ is considered hopeless. It has always done very well with me; fine flowers and fine glossy foliage.
Book (1926) p95. Geoffrey G. Whitney. In Quest of yellow Roses. ‘Mrs. S. K. Rindge’ rich yellow, flame color on outer petals, fade almost white in heat, rose suffusion in autumn; large, few petals; odor good; black spot. Foliage better the second season. 20 blooms, 11 the second season.
p137. Aden Hyde. Idaho. A Pernetiana Paradise. In a general way, I do not care for yellow, but…. my preference is ‘Mrs. S. K. Rindge’ , although ‘Golden Emblem’ in another year, may rival it. ….Just the same, it will take some rose to supplant ‘Mrs. S. K. Rindge’ for Idaho. The blooms are thin-petaled, to be sure, and the yellow fades; but, in a way, this rose does not fade – it changes color – and the resultant salmon pink is most attractive. It has a distinct and pleasing fragrance. I have gone into the garden some evenings when the air was laden with that odor – an exotic perfume that cannot be denied. ….When the days begin to get cooler, ‘Mrs. S. K. Rindge’, picked in the bud and taken into the house, opens into the loveliest roses I have ever seen. If there is such a thing as an attractive rose shrub, ‘Mrs. S. K. Rindge’, is it; at least, it tops the list in my garden……But a flower like ‘Mrs. S. K. Rindge’ – there’s a rose!
p139, P. L. A. Lines, Seattle, Wash. Why people do not grow ‘Mrs. S. K. Rindge’ more, I do not know. It is a beautiful golden yellow, and while it fades (or deepens to a pink when full blown), one is through with it at that stage….. It is a fine bloomer, with strong, upright growth and excellent foliage. I have heard that Mr. Howard is about to throw it out, which, it seems to me, will be a pity….. All of these, except ‘Mrs. S. K. Rindge’ are roses of substance and not half-petalled like ‘Independence Day….
