The pics of this one in the old books are amazing. Seems that it was introduced here in the US by Edmunds in the 60's and never performed well. Also seems this one may be extinct, it is listed nowhere, not even a picture of it is posted here, does anyone have any comments/info/confirmation of what my gut is telling me?
Same cross as Karl Herbst, except I think the seed/pollen parents may be reversed. Still, if it's anything like Karl Herbst, it would be a shame to lose this old HT.
Hello Jeff. I've been looking for Lady Zia for a long long time now. Since no picture is available, I've uploaded the one in Bertram Park's stunning book from 1962 called The World of Roses. This rose is a show winner over and over and winning medals hither and yan.
Another stunning huge show HT bred from Peace. We must get this rose back to the US before she is gone forever. If you know of a plant in the United States, PLEASE let us know!
