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.

....there was another race of "Hybrid Teas" - so-called - in the 1820s and 1830s. These were once-bloomers, crosses between early Teas and the various old Eoropean roses (Gallicas, Centifolias, Damasks, etc.), existing parallel and adjacent to their very close relatives the Hybrid Chinas, and at length subsumed in them. As example of this sort of Hybrid Tea would be 'Brown's Superb Blush' (C. Brown, pre-1829).

[From the article "Notes on the Origin and Evolution of our Garden Roses" by C. C. Hurst, first published 1941 in the "Journal of the Royal Horticultural Society"]
When the ever-blooming China came and was considered sufficiently hardy to plant outside about 1810, it was only natural that hybrids began to appear, and in 1815 the first two Hybrid Chinas came to light. The first was raised in England by Brown of Slough from Hume's Blush China, fertilized by a French Rose, and was known as Brown's 'Superb Blush'....
Book (1968) Page(s) 13.
A group called Hybrid Chinas was the result of crosses between forms of R. gallica and R. x odorata, such as the variety 'Brown's Superb Blush' (1815), which was triploid and sterile as many of the early sorts.

[From the article "Our Garden Roses" by J. W. Heslop Harrison]
...In England, of course, under our bleaker, duller skies, R. chinensis fails to ripen its seeds, and therefore but few of the earlier types arose here. Still, Brown's Superb Blush, Rivers' George the Fourth, Rosa Blairii No. 1 and R. Blairii No. 2 were British reared, and, with others grown on the Continent, comprised the original members of the group known seventy-five years ago as the Hybrid China Roses.
