...our data confirm the previously reported ploidy of 10 accessions and dispute the ploidy of the other six accessions, i.e., Knock Out®, Home Run®, Miracle on the Hudson®, Blushing Knock Out®, Double Knock Out®, and Oso Easy Paprika®. Each of these six cultivars was previously reported as triploid (D. Zlesak, Per. Comm.).... However, the relative genome sizes determined by flow cytometry indicate that each cultivar is tetraploid...

WEKcisbako (Carruth). Shrub. I had to mention this rose which really looked great when in full flower. The single bright medium red blooms, formed small clusters that cover the plant which has a quick repeat and was always in some stage of flowering. I like a shrub to be fairly compact in form and not too sprawly in habit and this shrub did it for me. It seemed very healthy too.
