'Ganges Mist' should be listed as descendant here. Thanks, Robert

How come 'Ganges Mist' (Viralliance) has still not been included in the descendants of this rose?

The parentage for Ganges Mist was entered incorrectly. This is caused by having a plant listing which is a cross (eg 'Rosa clinophylla x Rosa bracteata') but referencing the individual plants when entering parentage for descendants.

This hybrid was created by Dr. Viru Viraraghavan.

Thanks Robert. Do you know when ?

I can ask him. I know the cross has been made more than once. I'll ask when it was first made. I'll get back to you. Thanks, Robert

I take it he's not interested in updating his own roses ? We would love to have him participate directly.

If you contact me directly I can forward the address I use to contact him and you can ask him yourself. Thanks, Robert

Here is the response I got from Viru's Wife Girija.
"We looked up our records and the cross of clin x bract. was made for the first time in 1985."
I should mention that although Viru made this hybrid for the first time in 1985, there is no way for me to know if this is the same hybrid growing at Sangerhausen. The hybrid there could be from another source. I will ask Girija if they have further information.
Thanks, Robert
