Where is the listed ploidy from?	REPLY

I cannot find the source of the diploid ploidy, but Modern Roses V states the ploidy as triploid, which is more logical.	REPLY

It would at least give more credibility (and make far more sense) to the testing done on its hybrids, which are beyond diploid. Edit: Looks like it is triploid, which makes more sense.	REPLY

I really love this rose, beautiful, behaves more like a rambler. Very pretty and extremely hardy.	REPLY
