about to start breeding again
by Guest 7th October 2010, 18:43
the safrano is in full bloom and is about to be pollinated with grace darling and rosa laevigata, i have just realised that the tea rose baronne henriette de snoy is a triploid after looking at its breeding, i am now wondering , maybe the reason why it has no offspring to its name mmmm,

Could be anything from 'Scabrosa' to 'Wild Rover' to 'Abraham Darby'

It's a pollen 'machine' too... it's pollen has worked on lots of things... I'm hoping it will play a part in developing mini Teas.

Started pollinating here too. It's an obsessive compulsive disorder.
