‘Baby Gold Star’/’Estrellita de Oro’ = Miniature. Cette variété offre un bon exemple des travaux de pionniers effectués par Pedro Dot dans l’hybridation des miniatures. En croisant l’ancêtre de la plupart des miniatures modernes, ‘Rouletii’, avec ‘Eduardo Toda’, il obtint un miniature à fleur semi-double d’un profond jaune d’or. Pas de géant dans l’évolution des premiers rosiers miniatures, ce rosier était la preuve que l’échange de gènes est possible entre hybrides de thé et miniatures. Bon nombre des réalisations de Dot ont ouvert la voie à d’autres hybrideurs… Dot, Espagne, 1940.

While John de Vink was  mixing `Rouletii with Polyanthas,  Pedro Dot had the audacity to marry it to Hybrid Teas. His home was  San Feliu de Llobregat, near Barcelona, Spain. As a result of that address, around which there was a civil war, some of  Dot's roses were not introduced until many years after they had been raised. He was breeding in the 1930s with a yellow Hybrid Tea called 'Eduardo Toda', which he had raised from Ophelia x 'Julien Potin' ; it was not introduced until 1947. By its parents, and by its effects upon Rouletii' , I should think 'Eduardo Toda' could have been invaluable in breeding  yellow Hybrid Teas. As seed  parent to`Rouletii it produced  'Baby  Gold Star', or 'Estrellita de Oro', as Pedro Dot named it.   'Baby Gold Star' was introduced in the United States in 1940. It is famous for bringing yellow into the class, but at a cost, for it is a plant with few shoots, and much blackspot. The flowers are brilliant yellow and very double. 

p137.  ‘Rosina’ .....Although  this was raised in about 1935, it was obviously second choice in the raiser's judgement to the more double 'Baby Gold Star'......The parents were 'Eduardo Toda' x 'Rouletti',
