Book (1942) Page(s) 11. R. Marion Hatton. The World's Novelties. Two or three years ago I mentioned Daylight, shapely bloom of warm flesh with pink and gold tints. It was originated by Neils J. Hansen in the garden of Dr. Cross, at Chevy Chase, Maryland. Plants have been slow in developing, but last year the fragrant, 40-petalled flowers stood heads above most of the imported Novelties appearing since, and it looks good.

Book (1940) Page(s) 64. R. Marion Hatton. New Roses in America. Dr. Whitman Cross has three which are quite nice, but not important. Daylight has 40 petals of pale flesh with pink and gold tints. It is fragrant, and some of the blooms were nicely formed, but there were not enough of them.
