Edda , climbing hybrid tea (see picture), (M. Lodi 1929), seller: Giovanni Borgati, Bologna. Parentage: Reine Maria Henriette T x Boncenne HP. According to the description the rose has strong, climbing habit like the seed parent, plus reddish-green and healthy foliage. The bloom is large, very full and light mauve; however the center is reddish, contrasting strongly against the colour of the outer petals. The breeder, Mr. Lodi, is a rose lover living in Bologna; Mr. Borgati is busy with crossbreeding and owns a number of novelties, which will come on the market in 1931/32. He will send scions from his rose Edda to the experimental garden of the Society's Rosarium.
