Rose Listing Omission
JAC 94-07856
2004 Jackson & Perkins test rose. Vibrant apricot tangerine floribunda, multiple petals like Graham Thomas, 4 to 5 ft. high, shade tolerance, medium sweet scent, susceptible to black spot otherwise disease resistant, prolific, blooms all summer, bloom size 5 to 6 inch blooms. My zone is 6a (Eugene, OR). The only downside is tons of thorns.

We added this rose and moved your photos. As you would be the best person, we've linked this plant listing to your HMF registration so you can add the details. Thanks !
btw, you have a different zone listed on your member page.

Funny thing about that zoning! Sunset NW Gardening Book has the Willamette Valley (where Eugene, Oregon is) as zone 6. According to the USDA map, we are 8a. I will change my post to say 8a instead of 6a!

I have added the information that I have for this rose. I'm pleased that I have the original Jackson & Perkins Rose Test Panel Results which has given me additional information that I would not have otherwise known.
Question: On my Rose Test Panel Results, only the "parentage" is shown which for this rose is "seedling x Amber Queen". Do I put this under "Seed" or "Pollen"?
Thanks!

The seed should be set to seedling and the pollen set to Amber Queen. Entering parentage can be tricky so let us know if you need help.
Thanks again for your participation and support of HMF.

1. Click on PARENTAGE 2. Click on EDIT under "Seed" 3. The default is "single plant" so since the seed parent is a seedling, click the radio button for SEEDLING 4. Click on CONTINUE 5. Click on EDIT under "Pollen" 6. Since the pollen parent is a single plant, click on CONTINUE 7. Enter rose pollen parent name in search field 8. Click the radio button next to the correct rose name (sometimes two roses have the same name) 9. Click on CONTINUE 10. Click on CLOSE
and you have entered the parentage

Thank you! By the way, I want to mention that the parentage on two of these roses is the same but with different results:)

That's common in rose breeding. Jack Harkness wrote that there can be more than 2 million outcomes with one cross.
