The hybrid cultivar Rosehill was originally raised by the Rose Hill Nurseries of Kansas City, Missouri, from a selection of U. pumila × U. rubra seedlings made in 1951. It was described as slightly slower growing than its sibling Willis, but carrying a heavier crown, with good branching and attractive foliage. The tree was later marketed by the Willis Nursery Co. of Ottawa, Kansas.
