The repeat blooming \u2018New Dawn\u2019 was discovered by Somerset Rose Nursery in 1930 and has the distinction of having been the first plant to receive a U.S. Plant Patent (that is, it was awarded patent #1) on 18 Aug 1931. Lyn has three or four plants of \u2018Dr. W. Van Fleet\u2019, which are all absolutely covered with flowers.
