'Fritz Nobis' rose Reviews & Comments

Given the praise this rose has got on many different forums, I find it surpising that it does not have any descendants listed. FN is said to set hips so infertility should not be a problem. Any experience?

A few years ago I did have a lot of seedlings Fritz Nobis x OP. I think the succesfully germinated seedlings came from Fritz Nobis x Rosa glauca, becouse off the blue glue on the leaves and they where growing together, but I am not sure and still doubt. They did not survive the hard winters here outside, except one. But that one did not flower all that years so I have to wait longer. After that first succes of OP I tried it again, but the seeds never germinated in the following years.

Its sibling, Joseph Rothmund, has through the Buck roses. I think Buck saw something that Kordes did not. Kordes seemed to use the orange-red types from the Eglantine hybrids more. Probably because orange was rare back then, and pink was not.
