Please note that this rose was launched NOT by Sunningdale Nurseries but by T. Hilling & Co, the nursery for which Graham Thomas worked at the time. It is not known whether 'Hidcote Yellow' or 'Lawrence Johnston' has priority; it depends on whether 'Hidcote Yellow' was validly published before Thomas/Hilling described it as 'Lawrence Johnston' in 1948.

Corrected introducer, thank you! The references state that the rose was introduced as 'Lawrence Johnston' into commerce.
