☐ POST COMMENT

HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Oops, I misread the patent. One of the rose encyclopedia's on Google Books says it is the same seed parent w/ Rainbow's End as the pollen parent. Whatever this rose is, Im 100% certain it isnt what is stated. It just doesnt make any sense.	REPLY

Hi Michael........

Often the parentage listed in different references differ. I'd be happy to add the REFERENCE you found online and a note that there is a difference of opinion about the lineage.

The parentage listed on HMF is the same lineage the breeder provided to the American Rose Society when the rose was registered. I just confirmed this by checking the Modern Roses 12 database.

Lyn

The patent is polarized with the parentage information on this rose I have seen everywhere. The patent states:

"The present invention relates to a new and distinct variety of rose plant of the miniature rose class, which was created by crossing as seed parent an unnamed, undistributed seedling as pollen parent another unnamed, undisseminated seedling of the same parentage. The varietal denomination of this new rose is `Savahold`."

So, even though the seed and pollen parent are different, they would still read as [(AxB)x(AxB)] instead of [(AxB)x(CxD)] as stated everywhere. This makes more sense to me as I have grown behold and it has nothing in common with the pollen parent cross stated everywhere.
