Overriden attribute does not work on overriden methods

My control inherites from ScrollableControl and overrides the BackColor
property. The DescriptionFromAttribute inherits from the
DescriptionAttribute to return localized information. The same for the
CategoryFrom.
______________________________________

[CategoryFrom("Behavior"), DescriptionFrom("BackColorDescription"),
DefaultValue(typeof(Color), "Color.WhiteSmoke")]
public override Color BackColor
{
...
}

______________________________________
The definition of the DescriptionFrom class is (for your information):

______________________________________

public class DescriptionFromAttribute :
System.ComponentModel.DescriptionAttribute
{
public DescriptionFromAttribute(string attribute) : base(attribute)
{
this.attribute = attribute;
}

protected string attribute;
public override string Description
{
get
{
return this.DescriptionValue = Resources.GetString(attribute);
}
}

}
}
______________________________________
These inherited attributes work well for user-defined properties and do
return localized information but not for overriden properties. Is it a
bug or is it my code?
Thanks for your help.
