Notes:

This is one of 10 roses bred by Dr. Buck and distributed to friends and family. They were never introduced during Dr. Buck's lifetime. These roses have been collected by the members of his family for preservation. Chamblee's Rose Nursery introduced these 10 new Buck roses in 2010.

[John's Garden reports that Dr. Griffith Buck's daughter, Mary, is planning to introduce several of her father's unreleased roses in the Spring of 2000: 'Prairie Rhapsody', 'Prairie Gold', and 'Prairie Symphony'. There will also be a "Yellow Carefree Beauty" and a "Red Carefree Beauty".]
