Notes:
This rose was introduced by E. & W. Hackett Nursery in Adelaide and heavily publicised in 'The Gardening Bulletin'. In the March 1, 1927 issue it was promoted as a hybrid tea, but it grew so vigorously that by December 2, 1929, they were admitting that "it must be classed as a climber". Two spellings: Phillip and Philip are used extensively in the references.
