Parks traveled to Canton and not only obtained this rose but also the yellow Tea rose, R. odorata ochroleuca, which until then had only been known in Europe from Chinese paintings. It was put out under the name of 'Park's Yellow

In the discussion of Rosa chinensis: cv. 'Sulphurea'. A seedling of 'Odorata' ('Hume's Blush'), figured by Andrews in Roses, t. 86 (1826); raised by Knight, the Chelsea nurseryman, it has pale yellow, semi-double flowers. Andrews called this rose R. indica sulphurea, and it is probably that the rose portrayed in the third edition of Redouté, Les Roses, (1828-30) under the same name is the Knight seedling and not 'Park's Yellow', as usually supposed.

(4) PARKS’S YELLOW TEA-SCENTED CHINA, 1824
(R. chinensis Jacq. x R. gigantea Collett)

The fourth and last of the Stud Chinas is Parks’s Yellow China, which was brought from China by Parks for the R.H.S. in 1824. The following year it was imported to France by the enthusiastic Rose breeder Hardy, of the Royal Luxembourg Gardens, where its novel colour made it a general favourite. There is a good figure of the original in the 1835 edition of Redouté under the name of R. indica sulphurea, with a description by Pirolle.  At first sight, with its large yellow flowers, thick tea-scented petals, and bright green leaves, Parks’s Yellow China looks more like a Tea than a China, and reminds one rather of the yellow variety of R. gigantea  discovered in Manipur by Sir George Watt in 1882.  An analysis of its characters, however, shows the influence of ten China characters to twenty of the Wild Tea Rose, so that the plant must be regarded as a hybrid. Parks’s Yellow China was the ancestor of many remarkable Roses: crossed with the Noisettes it produced the typical Yellow Teas which, crossed with the Pink Teas derived from Hume’s Blush China and the Bourbon, gave rise to those exquisite shades of refined colouring peculiar to Teas in which the pink and yellow are indescribably mixed and blended.  Through the Teas, Park’s Yellow China was the ancestor of many of the Hybrid Teas, Pernets, Poly-Poms and Poulsen Roses.  No living material of Parks’s Yellow China has been  available since 1882, but there is little doubt that it was a diploid, and crossed with the diploid Noisettes, its descendants proved to be diploid.
