Does HMF have a listing for R. hemispherica, the large double yellow mentioned by Clusius in Hortiae Germaniae of 1526? I find this rose mentioned in Old Garden Roses, by Bunyard, p.38 and 52. It can also be seen in some early flower paintings.

Is it R. hemisphaerica before 1516, you want? The spelling might be tripping things up.

Found it. Thank you. Pix look just like the old paintings. I am surprised so few have tried breeding with it.

It is beautiful. I suspect many have tried, but few have succeeded.
