'Rosa rugosa X Rosa carolina' rose Reviews & Comments
-
-
Sorry I'm not more active on here... I'm Tom Silvers and I posted the lighter pink one, which I raised from pollen of Rosa carolina on a single white form of Rosa rugosa. The description was already existing in HelpMeFind when I added the picture. Sadly I lost that hybrid in a move, but... I still have the Rosa carolina, and in 2015 got new seeds on Rosa rugosa 'Moje Hammarburg' by using Rosa Carolina pollen. So I'm crossing my fingers I'll have a double-flowered version of what I'd gotten all those years ago.

Thank you Tom. Possibly the description came from the "wine-red" plant at Sangerhausen. Whether or not it is the same rose is unknown.
Please keep HelpMeFind in mind when you can uncross your fingers. We're always happy to showcase the new roses.

Why does the description say "dark red" when it is pale pink?

Not sure. There is the dark red version from Sangerhausen mentioned in the references - and the pink version shown in the photos from Maryland, U.S. We need to hear from the unknown breeder or the photographer, member Tsilvers
