Notes:
  • “Many people associate the name Belinda with a single rose, but in reality there are a number of roses that all share the common name. More than one are simply offspring of another; however all are unique in their own way. The oldest rose Belinda that we have been able to find was bred by John Bentall in 1936 in the United Kingdom. For those of you who may not be familiar with the name, John Bentall was the gardener of Joseph and Florence Pemberton starting in 1920. He was Pemberton's assistant for many years and ultimately became his beneficiary and successor. John and his wife Ann went on to create a number of stunning roses, including ‘Autumn Delight’, ‘Lady Gay’, ‘Paul Crampel’, and ‘The Fairy.’” --- “Belinda Roses” at 1001landscapingideas.com

  • “Developed from relatives of the original old musk rose, ‘Rosa moschata’, Hybrid Musks (HMsk) are an increasingly favored class. Reverend Joseph Pemberton of England, and his successors Anne and Jack Bentall, using ‘Trier’ and Teas in the breeding, largely developed the HMsk class. ‘Trier’ (1904) is a descendant from ‘Aglaia’ (multiflora x ‘Rêve d’Or’ – noisette tea and musk).” --- “Hybrid Musks” at rose.org
