United States - Patent No: PP 578 on 27 Apr 1943 VIEW USPTO PATENTApplication No: 1/396,317 on 2 Jun 1941 The parentage of the rose bush forming the subject matter of this application is not exactly known. The rose, the subject of this application was produced through cross-pollenization of a rose with a common variety of Cecil Brunner rose. The rose which was used for cross-pollenization with the Cecil Brunner rose was one which had resulted from cross -pollenization theretofore performed and the exact ancestry of this rose is not known and it is an unnamed rose but in several respects, in fact in most respects, is similar to that known as the ''World's Fair."~ The particular rose illustrated is the first generation cross- pollenization grown from the seed resulting from such cross-pollenization. It is the generation of the rose preceding the rose illustrated in my copending application filed June 2, 1941, Serial No. 396,316, and therein referred to as a red rose of the Cecil Brunner type.
