    Thanks. I'll see if I can track this discrepancy back through Modern Roses.

    A further reference for Frau Elise Kreis as a Polyantha in "Das Rosenbuch", Wilhelm Mütze & Camillo Schneider, Berlin 1924:


    ^"Frau Elise Kreis 1913 Kreis crimson red, semi-filled, medium-size, medium-high, bushy, sport of Aennchen Müller. Excellent variety for group-planting.

    I'm missing Modern Roses IV. I don't find this listed until Modern Rose V in 1958 as 'Else Kreis.' Good to have this straight. Thanks.
