'Chewmaytime' rose Reviews & Comments

I have been growing my plant (same one never been replaced) since 2012 and it never gets blackspot. I grow it in very tight quarters and sometimes the weeds will grow to surround it to the point where you cannot see it anymore - but when I clear out all the surrounding growth, I find it happy and still with absolutely no blackspot. It stays compact, remains bushy and well branched, and blooms well throughout the season. Whichever races of blackspot we have here in Iowa does not affect it.

Spots quite a bit here in Tasmania, Australia (USDA equiv. 9B).

I am going to hazard a guess that the area it was tested in has different bs strains than in Australia. I know that from this line, half of the US praises it, and the other half is pretty harsh about its defoliation. I am going to guess that this line is resistant to 2 of the 3 North American strains, and very prone to the third one.

I still have it and have used it this year in crosses. It is a decent seed parent so I put 'Little Wonder' on it to wich it up some and try to beef up the disease resistance. LW has yellow behind it (pers comms Thomas Proll: KORlitare (’Sonnenröschen’ in Germany) is bred (in 1991) from ’Sternenflor’ (see: http://www.helpmefind.com/rose/l.php?l=2.30466) as seed parent that is probably (?) bred from ‘Immensee’ (KORimro) but repeat blooming.
Pollen parent was a never released yellow groundcover with a Rosa wichuraiana background as well. ), so I am hoping that lovely orange/yellow single flower can be retained in a healthier version. When it is very hot and dry here, 'Paprika' does well. The main reason I made my initial comment was due to the unscrupulous misinformation some growers pump out surrounding the roses they sell.

Their claims held true for years in my climate, and it is hard to know every micro-climate and every weather change. Its an ongoing challenge, sadly.
It has produced mixed results for me. The orange becomes fleeting during the second generation, even in lines of oranges from other roses. Current batch of seedlings are what I would call... cinnamon-colored.

Purchased this rose potted in a very nice size last spring. Over the course of the summer this "very black spot resistant" rose developed the malady in a location surrounded by roses that are supposedly more susceptible to the fungus, but none had it previously or developed it afterwards. Now I'm spraying it weekly with Rose Pride. However, when in full bloom it is gorgeous, and I am happy that I acquired it.
