Bees was succeeded by Sealand Nurseries at the same location until until at least end of the 1980's. Sealand Nurseries advertised as selling "Bees of Chester" roses. There are at least four more roses from 1995, which received international registration as bred by Bees of Chester and introduced by L W van Geest Farms.

Bred, as were Cliff Richard, I Love You and the People's Princess, by Van Geest. Introduced by Bees as Van Geest Nurseries was a wholesale business.

References including Modern Roses XI

I do not have Modern Roses XI. But I do have Modern Roses 12. The references therein for ‘‘Strawberries and. Cream’, I Love You’ and ‘The People’s Princess’ say the opposite of what you are saying. You may be correct, but as we have pointed out to you many times before, HelpMeFind works from references, and not from someone’s say so. If you would like to correct any data, then you have to find us a reference that will substantiate that data.

We would appreciate one rose per comment please.
