Book (1968) p39. Roy Rumsey. The Best Roses of the Last Five Years. Saratoga ('White Bouquet' x 'Princess White') The shapely creamy-white blooms in good clusters open well. The growth is bushy and upright and the foliage bright and tough. Very prolific.
p61. Mrs. Heather Rumsey. The Best Of The Floribundas. Whites or creams are dominated by 'Schneewittchen' ('Iceberg') and 'Saratoga'. The former is the taller of the two and is a pure white. 'Saratoga' is more creamy and a better shaped flower. Indeed it is really a very beautifully shaped flower, and very good for floral work. I have seen the lovely blooms of Saratoga decorating a wedding cake, and they looked good enough to eat It also has lovely shiny foliage, and does very well for us.

Book (1965) Page(s) 17. Roy and Heather Rumsey, NSW. New Roses. Saratoga Floribunda. (E. S. Boerner) The best white Floribunda since 'Schneewittchen' ('Iceberg'), but this one is a low bushy grower. It has beautifully formed flowers of Hybrid Tea shape with 30-35 petals. Each flower would be about two inches across and the clusters adequately cover the plant with repeat flowering. An outstanding variety. ('White Bouquet' x 'Princess White').
