Thank you, we added this parentage as a note.

This seems to track with the patent info. Which, if true, means the unknown parent likely had few petals, was not a hybrid tea, and probably triploid (or diploid). The possibilities are too great to fathom a guess, but it was probably a rose from before 1999.
