We have two breeders listed. Do we have two roses? Spring Hill are quoting a slightly different code name of ZARrefre	REPLY

Yes, we seem to have an earlier 'Red Freedom' from before 1996. See the References to the 1997 'Pink Freedom'. Probably easiest to make a new listing for ZARrefree (re free? maybe the code says they have redone it).	REPLY

Apparently 3 varieties if you take into account shady naming =/ 1 from Twomey, 1 from Kordes, 1 from Zary. They are probably selling the Zary version now? Maybe a Knock Out hybrid now? Maybe someone that recently ordered can chime in.	REPLY

The roses in the photos here look like what I remember Spring Hill freedom looked like, but in the new Spring Hill catalogs/website, it looks like Red Ribbons (Kordes). Like, pretty much identical....	REPLY

I am afraid Spring Hill has recycled the 'Red Freedom' and 'Pink Freedom' names. These photos are from the shrub of the 1990s.	REPLY
