This is probably a seedling of this variety, and not the variety itself. See the 1918 American Rose Annual reference in the References tab under the HMF entry for "Dawson seedling," where Edward K. Butler writes, "Dawson Seedling. This rose was raised by my father, and is not in commerce. In Color it is a pale salmon-pink, Fading to cream. We have grown it for almost twenty years, and it has always done well and been entirely free of disease. I have given a plant of this rose to Mr. A. J. Fish, and hope he may propagate from it. The photograph which accompanies this article was published in the Annual of the National Rose Society of England for 1915, but was there wrongly described as the Dawson Rose. It is reproduced here as being a good Illustration of the naturally symmetric form so often taken by These ramblers."
