'Anne Chapman' rose References

HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

'Anne Chapman'. There is very little in the written record from Ken Nobbs of the rose 'Anne Chapman', but its registration paper does still exist. It's possible that the rose did not survive, although in Ken's planting at Te Kauwhata there is a rose that matches the description of 'Anne Chapman'. This is another of my educated guesses and I hope that I am right for I would very much like an 'Anne Chapman' in my garden. Like Thomas and his pears I would take her with me from place to place. The rose was bred in 1984 from 'Thornfree Wonder' and 'Veilchenblau', and is a pale pink, with some petals having darker splotches. Ken notes on his paper that some have a white edging, and some a white longtitudinal stripe through the petal. The flowers are 4 centimetres across with 29 petals, and 8 or more flowers per cluster. If it's like its missionary siblings, it is a strong, healthy and vigorous rambler.
