Book (2001) Page(s) 2910-291. William R. Smith [quotes from a letter of Richard Bagg in the American Rose Annual 1930] ...One morning, late in September or early in October, I noticed among a few roses in pots a 'Maman Cochet' in bloom with fewer petals than usual but a perfect set of pistils. This was an opportunity that had never occured before, or since for that matter, so I immediately began a search for pollen, and was quite provoked because the only rose with pollen to be found was a 'Mme. Hoste', so I used that. ...¨Yes, I know that 'William R. Smith' has been renamed by several. One of the names is 'Charles Dingee'. Just a swindle!
