'Rosa mulliganii' from the website Trees and Shrubs Online (treesandshrubsonline.
Near to R. rubus, but the leaflets sometimes seven and the flowers larger on more slender pedicels up to 1{1/2} in. long, in a laxer inflorescence. It was raised in the R.H.S. Garden at Wisley from seeds collected by Forrest during his 1917–9 expedition to Yunnan and was named by Boulenger in honour of Brian Mulligan, then Assistant to the Director at Wisley, who sent him specimens for identification. A rose distributed as R. longicuspis is near to R. mulliganii and possibly from the same batch of seed.
