I will try to circulate some plants probably next year to other hybridizers who may want to use it. It's a moss rose, but some hybridizers may want to take advantage of its diverse parentage. I may even try to introduce this rose to the public in general if I can find a nursery that are willing to sell it for me. I don't care about naming it, so I may give someone else that privilege if I see it fit. For now, I will just allow it to grow.

I live in San Jose, California. So-- the United States. I wouldn't mind sending this rose to other places, just so long postage and handling is paid. (Or... an exchange for another seedling, or for a rose that I can't get in US nurseries.)	REPLY

Importing into Europe is easy, but requires a phytosanitary certificate. On the other hand, I understand that the other way round is very difficult due to quarantine requirements.	REPLY

I see that you are located in Sweden, and it seems you're a director of a rose garden. Does this mean that you are interested in displaying this seedling for public view? Or, are you interested in hybridizing with it? I am not sure how cold your climate gets, so who knows how hardy this seedling will be.	REPLY

I would love to be able to grow this plant. The colors are gorgeous. I don't hybridize now, but I hope to be able to in the future. I am especially interested in working with the moss roses in general. I definitely think you should try to distribute this pretty rose. How is the disease-resistance?	REPLY

You can have it for your garden if you list it on helpmefind. Right now it's too hot to ship cuttings, and I never rooted this rose before. Maybe by the fall you can grow it if you got a good spot. This rose, however, gets mildew. But-- so do other moss roses. But the mossing is especially heavy, which tends to trap extra moisture. This rose is so mossy that some of the leaves get mossing, just like both its parents.

I would be more than happy to list your rose in my garden on Help me find if I had the priviledge to grow it. Fortunately, I have never had mildew in my garden here in TN--just lots of blackspot--but you're right, I am used to spraying many of my other plants. I would love to grow it here and give you some feedback as to how it performs. ( the mossier the better!) Just let me know whenever you feel it would be good to send, and I'll get my info to you. If I have a rose that you would like a cutting from, let me know, and I will start one for you. My mosses are small, as they are new this year, but maybe by the fall, certainly by spring they should be ready.

I would like some of this too! How big does it get?	REPLY
