'RSM T9' rose Reviews & Comments

Gregg Lowery's catalog says Orangeade has remarkable hips but there are no photos of these. Does anyone have a picture or description of the hips show it provides?

Dear Peter Harris, You have added the synonym of RSM T9 to Sam McGredy’s 1958 rose ‘Orangeade’. The McGredy codes were as a rule MAC. I do not believe the breeder of ‘Prairie Celebration’ (Davidson & Collicutt) thirty five years later, would have given a new synonym for a rose they well knew the name of. In their breeding records for the 1993 ‘Prairie Celebration’, T9 is just shorthand for the parentage of ’Orangeade’. As ‘Orangeade’ is listed as the seed parent of ‘Prairie Celebration’ anyway, I believe your Note perhaps should better be placed in the ‘Prairie Celebration’ file, rather than the ‘Orangeade’ file.
