'heather roses' 2010

I changed the topic for my this year roses, because I'm not shure that they will become winter hard.
The first 'AD' Seedling opens it's bud. The inner petals are much more orange coloured that the outer ones let me expect:

there is another one which is also very promising, seedling of 'rose de Resht' x 'Sympathy':

Very cool Bemo... 'Rose de Rescht' is a rose that fascinates me atm!

it was a short show and not what I had expected:

the next day it looked:

and one day later it has finished:

may be due to the strong scent , it has only a short blooming period. The petal count was 12 but I'm sure, the next blooms will have more.

with fragrand regards

Your seedling are very very healthy

G'day Bernhard!

The foliage on your 'Rose de Resht' x 'Sympathy' seedling is very nice!

Damo, fortunately, yes. There are another 2 seedlings of this batch, but looking different:

a seedling from 2009 (be sure it's winter hard!) is blooming the first time. The plant is about 1.8 m high, will train it as climber:

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]OP Seedling of 'NDR1' ('Heartache')

it is a grazy red and it seems that Kordes (or the breeders before) have used Gallica Versicolor in breeding
the white spot at the center leaf is not a reflection by the sun. Will see if it is stable, a little bit more of white stripes would be gr8.

I would recomment looking at some of the descendants of Mr Moore's 'Stars n Stripes' or 'Honorine de Brabant', Bemo, if you would like to introduce more stripping. There aren't many good striped climbers and this is a lovely rose with which to start. I used 'Papageno' and have quite a few very well striped seedlings as you might remember seeing earlier this year ( [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] ). Not all striped roses pass on the stripes but you have far better chanes if it is descended from 'Stars n Stripes' (striped sports don't usually pass it on).

Simon, thank you for the striped Tip, will keep it in mind

now the first seedling of 'Bonica' x 'Loredo' flowers. It is the nearly only one of the crosse (1/9) who seems to be healthy. All other are suffering more ore less from PM

the good message is, it is not difficult to select the right one....

that is a stunner of a rose Bernhard, great looking foliage to go with it. how old is the bush if I may ask.

Yes, I love it too !!!

and thank you for your comments.
David, this rose has germinated in the spring 2009.
I kept it, although it has not bloomed in the 1st year and I also found a place for it in the garden, although the place is limited.
So maybe the two things you need as beeder mostly are a good portion of luck and inspiration as well as 'a good eye'.
You can begin to select the rose seedling stll when they are very small. The good one are still eye catchers !
Simon did it from a pic:

have a nice weekend

another more detailed pic of the 'NDR1 Radio Niedersachsen ®' seedling. Blotches on the upper petals escaped.

the mother plant has gotten its grazy name after a german radio station

How old is this one again Bernhard?

germinated in 2009 and flowering this year the 1st time.

And this flower is it's first or second bloom? it has great saturation

that's a difficult question, because it is very hot this sommer and the rose seems to bloom continously. Assume that it is one of the last from the first flowering

cheers
Bernhard

another little lady from 'Bonica x Loredo' (2010):

cheers
Bernhard

I wouldn't mind some of that heat now... it's cold and wet and windy here atm...

Well done, Bemo. It looks stunning. Can you send more close up photos.

it's an open pollination of 'NDR1.....'

the next one could become a 'burner', it's the first flower of this 2010 bred OP of 'Bonica', enjoy the recently shot pic

I've never expected a white rose from this plant, as all before showed pink tones.

whish you all a nice weekend
