Breeder's notes:
This cross contains genes from R. nitida, R. rugosa rubra, R. cinnamomea, R. spinosissima, R. laxa and R. foetida persiana. The plan for this cross was to create an extremely hardy rose that is very disease resistant and that has a blossom in a shade of yellow. Some repeat bloom would be excellent. This seedling should be hardy to zone 3 but that needs to be verified.
