'Pretty Polly Pink' rose Description
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.

The variety 'Zlepolone' originated from a controlled cross conducted by the breeder, David Zlesak, of River Falls, Wisconsin, USA. The cross was made in June 2007 in Minnesota, USA between the female parent variety 'BAlpome' and the male parent variety 'Mountain Mignonette'. United States - Patent No: PP 31,644 on 14 Apr 2020 VIEW USPTO PATENTApplication No: 16/350,688 on 20 Dec 2018 Inventors: Zlesak; David Charles (River Falls, WI)
Applicant: The Conard-Pyle Company West Grove PA
The pollination that led to the new variety of Rosa hybrida polyantha rose plant occurred in June of 2007, wherein two parents were crossed which previously had been studied in the hope that they would contribute the desired characteristics. The female parent (i.e., the seed parent) was `BAlpome` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 16,602). The male parent (i.e., the pollen parent) was `Mountain Mignonette` (non-patented).
