'B. W. Price' rose Reviews & Comments

My HMF:

☐ POST COMMENT

HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Singularly Beautiful Roses

Please note that HMF lists two entirely different varieties under the name B. W. Price. The 1946 American Rose Annual refers to the McGredy cultivar (1941) as a single pink HT (p. 184). The 1951 ARA states, "B. W. Price (McGredy, 1941) has from six to eight petals of cerise-pink and is a charming rose of good size. Of course, when the hot sun hits that cerise it melts to a much paler shade, but it is still a pleasing color, and its petals are so artistically waved that this rose is a valuable variety if one is at all interested n making a collection of singles (p.180)."

Parentage is Night x Mme. Butterfly under the plants bred by Walter Johnson.
