I wonder why you attribute this rose to Ada Mansuino and not Quinto Mansuino. The two references you cite don't seem to support this contention. More importantly, in Mansuino's short contribution to the April 1959 ARS magazine he says, "Upon returning after the war, I found only a few specimens saved. One was ... 'Red Flare'. The context makes it clear that by "specimens" Mansuino is referring to specimens "of my best roses". It may not always be possible to draw a strict line between Ada and Quinto as breeders, but the latter's recollection suggests tat in this case we can.
