Book (1944) Page(s) 89. Conrad O'Neal. Self-Seeding and Rose Breeding. My very first self-seeded plant was from 'New Dawn'. I'll never forget what a job I had in budding the little fellow. The plant was about four inches altogether. The one little cane with three small buds was about the size of a toothpick. Of three budded, only one took. The next March I cut the wild top off the multiflora and was thrilled aplenty when the plant bloomed in June and climbed and continued to bloom all summer. Yes, it turned out to be a hardy everblooming climbing rose very much like its parent, though not as rampant a grower. However, the bloom is an improvement. It has finally been named 'Tricia', and registered with the American Rose Society. Melvin E. Wyant of Mentor, Ohio, will probably introduce it.
