Dem Vereinsgarten in Sangerhausen habe ich im Vorjahr Reiser von nachstehenden Rosen gegeben: Freya, Griseldis, Siwa, Wachhilde. Es sind keine Eliterosen, aber immerhin gut gefüllt, wüchsig, auch reich remontierend bis zum Winter, und gute Samenträger, daher ganz genügend zur Erziehung neuer Varietäten. Hoffen wir, dass sie gefallen.
Karpona, 18. Februar 1910. Rudolf Geschwind.

Translation:
I have given last year cuttings of following Northland-roses to the Society's Garden in Sangerhausen: Freya, Griseldis, Siwa, Wachhilde. These are not Elite-Roses, but still well double, vigorous, repeating richly until winter, and good seed-bearers, therefore quite sufficient for breeding of new varieties. Let us hope that they will find acclaim. Karpona, 18. February 1910, Rudolf Geschwind

[Letter of December 17, 1894 by Rudolf Geschwind on hybrid caninas]
...Already my first trials were crossings between Canina and Tea. Let us see what came out of it:.....

Vigorous uptight growth, canes very prickly; blooms in clusters, large, densely filled, flat cup form, pink, center more vivid; floriferous, starts often only in July to bloom; flowers until snowfall.
