Portuguese term or phrase: tendo-se vulgarizado a própria designação da flor

Hi everyone! I'm translating material on tiles. Does this 'tendo-se' refer to the tile or Mackintosh? Thanks for your help!

Azulejo representando uma rosa amarela geometrizada, ladeada por pares de folhas e pousada em três folhas pendentes cujo contorno é repetido por uma delicada ferronerie, linha ogival pendente de duas volutas retas e simétricas.
A contenção clássica do motivo, esmaltado a amarelo e anil, destaca-se do fundo em verde-escuro que contrasta com as arestas branqueadas pelo próprio relevo.
O ornato tem como referente a gramática decorativa estabelecida pelo arquiteto escocês Charles Rennie Mackintosh (1868-1928), ***tendo-se vulgarizado a própria designação da flor como “rosa Mackintosh”*** que, com grande aceitação internacional foi motivo recorrente na Arte Nova de pendor classicizante nas duas primeiras décadas do século e ainda na Art Déco já na década seguinte.
