Website/Catalog (May 2014) [From "Històries de les Roses"] Pere Dot, l’aventura de les roses a Catalunya Translation: ... He later recounts the flowering of this Pernetiana of his (possibly La Giralda.HP, 1926) with Moyesii and says that it is repeating with plenty of flowers, of simple flowers of about eight petals of about 10cm. of diameter, white, slightly pink flesh and crimson tinted on the inside, with gold ribbed bottoms, with a vine-like appearance, thick foliage and almost no prickles....Regarding the origin of the name, JH Nicolas explains that “Two years ago we received in Breeze Hill samples of the new seedlings of Pere Dot, among which was the beautiful Li Burés that had excited us so much. There was also a beautiful rose that was presented as a hybrid of La Giralda X R. Moyesii. It immediately produces large, large, white flowers of enormous beauty, and occasionally similar flowers, but with hints of crimson, throughout the season. We told Mr. Dot how much we liked it and he answered us this: "I am very happy with the comments made about my rose, Giralda X R. Moyesii. This rose, so far, has had no name, so it is a pleasure to leave it in your hands to choose the name you like best. I'll send you a picture of the rose." We had some dilemmas to find a suitable name for the new rose and finally “Nevada” emerged, because it is short, easy to pronounce and appropriate, as it has an American part and also meaning in Spanish. We were very pleased to receive the approval of the name from Mr. Dot, and it will certainly be introduced in due course ”.
