Notes:

'Cleveland I' and 'Cleveland II' are sometimes confused in literature. 'Cleveland II' which seems to have been actually the first 'Cleveland' is old pink with coppery yellow undertones. 'Cleveland I' was first introduced as 'H. P. Pinkerton' in 1918 and is scarlet with crimson shading. This latter rose was renamed 'Cleveland' sometime around 1929.
