How does it perform in Your Canadian winters? As for the parentage it ought to do well.

I do not protect any roses that I grow in my Canadian zone 4a (-29C à -23C). After five years of growing, it has only four feet tall, probably because of my heavy rocky clay soil. It is really hardy and very diseases free. No cutting is necessary in spring except for broken stems caused by snow cover. Thank you Jay-Jay for your interest! André

You're welcome. It would do well in Finland too. There are some growers/nurseries, that might be interested in propagating. If You want I could/might ask my friend Marnix, who has some contacts over there. Cordialement Jay-Jay.

This five years old cross is not registered and honestly, I don’t know if I could do it because it is very expensive in Canada! Also, I would like to observe it, two or three years more, to see if it will grow more than 4 feet tall and if the performances will be better. I keep your offer in mind Jay-Jay and thank you very much for this offer! Amicalement, André.

Hi, I prefer to have this kind of rich soil instead of poor sandy soil, even if some roses grow slowly in it.

Yes Jay-Jay, I really like it also. I was very surprise (and happy) when I saw the purple seedling.

Hi, what is the white stuff on the hips. Hips looking thus a bit like a Fly Amanitas.

I would guess at a bit of mould / mildew on the sticky ends of the glands?

At first, I thought of aphids producing some protective residue, but might it be wax/resin produced by the glands???

Hi to both of you Effectively that is resinous glands that are very, very sticky. They are present all season long as you can see on the photo added. I agree with Patricia that is probably some mildew on them at this time of the season. Thank you, André.
