'Hayota' rose Description

My HMF:

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.

Notes:

There are perhaps, two versions of R. Laevigata rosea in existence:
1. A laevigata HYBRID originating in Japan and grown there for many years, now grown and photographed by Girija.
The Japanese plant has foliage like R. laevigata but it is not invariably trifoliate.
The size of the foliage and the shine on it is substantially less than that of R. laevigata itself.
The stipules and bristles are red.

2. A laevigata COLOUR MUTANT rose, possibly once grown by Trevor Griffiths and shared with Peter Beales.

p48. R. laevigata (naniwa-ibara)….. In Japan there is also a red form (rosea) known as Hayota. Attempts to hybridize from this variety have not been successful.

1992 Peter Beales Roses
p128. R. laevigata.... I have an interesting and rare pale pink form kindly sent to me by Mr. Trevor Griffiths of New Zealand, but after nearly 8 years I've yet to see it flower.

1997 Alan Sinclair & Rosemary Thodey Gardening with Old Roses, A NZ Guide 1993. Paperback ed. 1997.
p82. R. laevigata rosea with its glossy green foliage and large waxy rose-pink single flowers, is excellent in trees but needs to be planted on a sunny sheltered side to do really well. R. laevigata, with its single white flowers and the same growth habit, is slightly more vigorous.

2014. Old Rose Survivors - Wild and Untamed
p17. Viru Viraraghavan. Breeding Roses for Warm Climates and the Role of Some Indian Rose Species. ….Work with this is going on as also with hybrids derived from R. laevigata, especially R. laevigata rosea, which is a pink version of the species (or perhaps a species hybrid, opinions differ) from Japan.
