Ralph Moore stated he created 700 seeds from the cross of Bracteata X Guinee. Only 7 seedlings germinated. Only two he felt were actual hybrids. Muriel was the only one of the 2 he kept for further work. He stated Muriel passes on good foliage and that in the first generation, all seedlings will be climbers.

He also stated this is best used as a pollen parent.

I too am looking for this rose for a friend who lost his wife named Muriel. I am in the Fresno, CA area but Sequoia Nursery is now closed. Any help greatly appreciated. I need it by September 24th. Thanks
