Hybrid Rugosa.  

Pink.  

This listing is just a record of the results obtained from a Thérèse Bugnet X Topaz Jewel cross. I'll assign the seedlings individual codes when final selections have been made. For now the photos should illustrate some of the variation in bloom form and leaf shape, texture and degree of glossiness.

As you would expect, there is variation in cane colour, thornlessnes, bloom size and fragrance. However, the more "modern rose" influences present in Topaz Jewel are not seen in the growth habit of any of the seedlings. I couldn't say any of these seedlings resemble Topaz Jewel in any real sense, and none of them show any trace of yellow. There have been some unexpected results with regard to bloom form though.
