"It originated from a cross between Dainty Bess and the hybrid seedling Rosa gigantea, with Mme. Cecile Brunner as one of its earlier progenitors."

Parentage:

seed:	Dainty Bess

Notes:

According to the American Rose Annual 1950, on June 28, 1949, A US Patent for Improved Cecile Brunner was issued to Carl George Duehrsen, Montebello, California, and assigned to Howard & Smith.

Parentage changed from
Dainty Bess × Rosa gigantea Collett ex Crépin to
Dainty Bess x [Rosa gigantea Collett ex Crépin x Unknown] x Mlle. Cecile Brunner
to better reflect the parentage mentioned in the Patent. It may not be quite correct.
