Sorry, David Mears, but I’ve been doing some research and the only roses that grow in your region are PINK. evil chuckle
Joe, that is not nice, off to the bad boys corner for you, LOL. I thought that would have been Warren’s reply as he knows I am not a pink fan, lets just say any color but pink.
Seedling S2 T89 has its first bloom. The perfume is amazing very strong and fruity.
Fru Dagmar Hastrup (T) Type 1 X A seedling of Ann Endt
Seedling S118 T215 Hybrid Multiflora, good repeat so far.
The first seedling S10 T164 is a:- (Sympathie X R.virginiana) X a seedling of [(R. calocarpa x R. nutkana) x R. acicularis]
The second seedling S32 T137 is :- [Valkeeri x ( Charles Austin X ( Mimas X R.virginiana)] X a seedling of Ann Endt (T) Type 3
The third seedling S10 T166 is a :- (Sympathie X R.virginiana) X a seedling of [(R. calocarpa x R. nutkana) x R. acicularis]
The seedling of the[(R. calocarpa x R. nutkana) x R. acicularis] used in the S10 T166, has glossy leaves.
This seedling S1 T5 is a:- R.tunquinensis X Lorraine Lee.
It is definitely a climber, it now stands at 4 ft high and yet to bloom.

I am interested in learning if your crosses with R. acicularis eventually are subject to rust? Or is rust even a problem where you are?
Beautiful range of foliage, Warren.
(I’m hoping to breed for anything other than yellow splotched with dark spots this year.)
Hi Margit;
I haven’t worked with R. acicularis as a single species only from it being in this cross [(R. calocarpa x R. nutkana) x R. acicularis]. None of the offspring have shown any signs of rust.
Cheers Warren
Hi Phil;
Thanks for the comment. I am not sure the availability of the latest Kordes range. Here in Oz we are around 4 to 5 yrs behind their release in Europe. They are worth hunting up if your looking for healthy offspring.
Cheers Warren
