I haven't read through every thread, but I am wondering if anyone knows about whether Lullaby typically produces masses of hips in the fall? I usually prune mine down to size at some point in late summer after major flushes of bloom seem over. I did not have a chance to do that this year and have the most beautiful hips! I will post a photo.

It's hip sterile. The only way to get anything from it is to pick out 1-5 grains of pollen per bloom and put it on something ridiculously fertile.

It appears in the pix here to be prone to vegetative centers. I suppose that must affect fertility?

Yes, as well as the scant amount of pollen it even possesses. I would rate it as a 98% sterile rose. 2% male fertility imo.

The photo for 'True Kindness' on some sights is the same photo used for 'Lion King'. I don't know if they are really the same rose, but they could be.
