Breeder's notes:
My yearly notes say Thrive after roses bred from it, but to remove confusion from commercial vs breeder stock, I use the term Hive on HMF.
This is my favorite seedling from Thrive. Mostly seedlings look like 'Thrive' itself, which is agitating as a breeder, but this one was decidedly different and did not have the downy mildew most 'Thrive' seedlings were susceptible to.
Patents:
Patent status unknown (to HelpMeFind).
