... originated by me by crossing the variety `JACmag` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 3,998, seed parent) with an unnamed Red Hybrid Tea rose (not patented, pollen parent). The pollen parent is a cross between two unnamed red hybrid tea rose varieties....Observations of the new variety were made from January 2005 to November 2007.

Notes:
Lady Bird Johnson, former First Lady of the United States, is 94 years old in the year of the release of yet another orange HT named for her, the third. Mrs. Johnson personally selected the rose. A percentage of the proceeds will be donated to the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center in Austin, Texas.
